My name is Autumn Nickerson. A few months ago I received the news no one wants to hear: I have cancer. Life since then has been an endless battle of navigating the healthcare system, finding the strength to stay strong for myself and my loved ones, and learning how to accept help. I've always been independent and never thought I'd need help; then the unexpected happened, I lost my job in the middle of all this. Now the financial burden between medical bills, transportation to appointments, prescriptions, and just trying to cover everyday necessities like food and rent, has become overwhelming. It's hard being human and sometimes the best thing you can do is ask for help. Right now, I need help more than ever.

Every dollar raised will go towards my medical care, living expenses, and giving me peace of mind to focus on healing instead of constantly worrying about money. Even the smallest donation can make a big difference-wether it's helping to pay for treatment, keeping the lights on, or putting groceries on the table.

If you're not able to donate, sharing this page with friends and family is just as valuable.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading my story, for your kindness, and for standing with me in this fight.

Forever grateful,

Autumn Nickerson
