Supporting Our Mom as She Faces Life’s Toughest Challenges

Supporting Our Mom as She Faces Life's Toughest Challenges

We’re creating this fundraiser not because our mom asked for it — in fact, she didn’t want us to. But as her children, we’ve watched her carry more than anyone should ever have to bear, and we feel compelled to help in any way we can.

Recently, our mom lost her husband — our stepdad — a man who brought love, laughter, and support into her life. As she grieves this heartbreaking loss, she's also adjusting to life as a single parent and continuing her fight through ongoing cancer treatments.

If you know our mom, you know she’s strong, proud, and incredibly independent. She would never ask for help — which is why we’re asking for her. Any support, no matter how small, will go toward easing the financial burdens that come with medical bills, daily expenses, and giving her a little more breathing room as she navigates this overwhelming new chapter.

She doesn’t need your help — she’ll find a way, as she always has. But your support could make a real difference as she begins to heal, physically and emotionally.

Thank you for showing her the same love and generosity she’s always shown to others.

With gratitude,

The Children of Josh and Shelly
