Support Tina's Journey to Healing from Breast Cancer
Donation protected
Tina Joly-Doucette has been fighting breast cancer since 2019. Her cancer has since progressed to stage 3.
After her initial diagnosis, Tina underwent a mastectomy — a surgery that led to unexpected complications and required emergency intervention. Since then, she’s taken a proactive and holistic approach to her recovery, embracing clean living and a range of alternative therapies. She returned to work as a teacher and continued treating her cancer holistically, doing everything she could to support her health naturally.
In 2023, Tina discovered a new lump in the same breast. She underwent a lumpectomy this past February, but the cancer had progressed and spread to her lymph nodes. Given her previous surgical complications, the proposed follow-up treatments — including chemotherapy and radiation — carry significant long-term risks for her.
Tina is now seeking care at a respected alternative cancer treatment center in Mexico. This clinic offers specialized, integrative therapies that build on the holistic approach she’s already been following — but with professional support and advanced treatment options she can’t access at home. It gives her the best chance at recovery without compromising her long-term health. But this kind of care comes at a significant cost.
I’m creating this GoFundMe to help Tina raise a portion of the funds needed to access this treatment. She’s done everything in her power to fight this disease naturally and bravely on her own — but now, she needs a community behind her.
Tina has given so much as a mother, wife, teacher, and a friend. Now it’s our turn to support her.
Every donation — no matter the size — brings her one step closer to hope, healing, and more precious time with the people she loves. Please consider donating and sharing her story. Let’s help Tina continue this fight, surrounded by the care, support, and love she truly deserves.
Thank you for being a part of Tina’s healing journey.
