Vanessa was diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma breast cancer in November of 2025. She began her chemotherapy treatments in December at Nebraska Medicine in Omaha and will finish her treatments in March. She will take a one month break before having a lumpectomy and partial axillary lymph node dissection in April. After a month of recovery, she will also need to have 5 weeks of radiation treatments.

These funds will help Vanessa with medical treatment costs and regular household expenses while she is off work recovering. Vanessa has a long road ahead of her. Any prayers or positive words of encouragement will make a huge difference.
