<div>Hello, my name is Takelia. I'm a 34-year-old mother to 3 wonderful children and a moody cat. On December 30, 2024, <strong>I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Invasive Lobular Carcinoma with metastatic spread to my lymph nodes.</strong> Life has been a whirlwind of appointments and insurance battles since then. Initially, there was a plan to continue working while seeking treatment. My first day back after having surgery to insert my chemo port, I started developing sharp pains when breathing. The next day, I was admitted into the hospital due to the port tip migrating into a small vein next to my heart where it wasn't supposed to be. This resulted in a second surgery, not even a week after the first, to remove the initial port and install a new port on the opposite side. I'm now healing from both with chemo starting soon. I will be having a double mastectomy in the coming months, followed by more chemo and radiation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My goal is to raise money to help with the cost of treatment and to help with everyday cost of living, as I have already had to take a significant amount of time off work and anticipate more in the coming months, due to the effects of chemo on my body. <strong>I would like to alleviate the financial stress in order to focus on recovery.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for any contribution you may make. I appreciate anything given during this difficult time.
</div>
<div>I plan to post regular progress updates here. As always, prayers are welcome and much needed. Thank you all
</div>
