My name is Tatiana Brown. I'm 23 years old. I'm starting this fundraiser because in September 2024, my mom was diagnosed with stage two breast cancer. My mom, Julie Takach is a mother to 8 (3 biological, 5 bonus), grandma to 7, a foster parent, a firefighter, and before treatment started, she worked at a school with children with disabilities and special needs.

She has stage 2 Triple Positive Breast Cancer, underwent genetic testing to find out she has 3 cancer genes. Her fight is at least one to two years of treatment and surgeries. She will have double mastectomies with reconstructive surgeries to follow and possibly radiation followed by immunotherapy, then 5 years of hormone replacement therapy.

Our family has been through so much this last year. Anything y'all can give will help, even just a share. All funds donated are to help offset out of pocket expenses. Thank you all for your time and kindness.
