Hello my name is Victoria Peña Franyutti.

As many of you know, my mom has been bravely battling cancer since 2019. For years she has fought with incredible strength, but recently, after her tests in June, her doctors in Mexico City told us that her cancer has become more active and aggressive. This means more doctor visits, stronger doses of chemotherapy, and higher medical costs.

Watching my mom go through this has been the hardest thing I’ve ever faced. She has always been my rock and my safe place, but now her body is changing so much because of the treatments and the illness. It breaks my heart to see the woman who was once so full of energy and laughter now growing weaker each day. I’m only 21, and my little sister is just 16—we both still need our mom more than ever. The thought of losing her feels unbearable, and every day I see her fight, I am reminded of how much love and courage she carries, even when she is hurting.

What amazes me is that despite all the pain, my mom still inspires me every single day. No matter what the doctors say, she stays positive and refuses to give up. She tells my sister and me that she’s fighting for us—and I believe her. She means everything to us, and we can’t imagine our lives without her. Her strength gives us hope, and your support can give her the chance to keep fighting and continue being the heart of our family.

Your donations will go directly toward a CT scan and upcoming chemotherapy sessions—treatments she urgently needs right now. Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference. And if you can’t donate, simply sharing this page would mean the world to us.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping me give my mom the chance to continue this fight.
