#AUTUMNSTRONG

...I hate that we’re in the financial position we’re in. I count down the days, hours, and minutes, until I get back to my career. As you can imagine living on Long Island, and counting on one income has been insanely challenging to say the least.. All while trying to give my girls as much of an awesome childhood as I can. It’s important to me to make sure Autumn and her sister Layla’s highs in life outweigh their lows.

And god knows we’ve seen some lows. 


I feel like everyone is like “here we go again” every time I do a fundraiser. But they’ve helped us tremendously. I’m still working on myself personally trying to not care what everyone thinks anymore and at the end of the day that’s what it comes down to. They say when you become a mother your world changes, mine changed again when Autumn was diagnosed with cancer. And for the past almost 5 years we have been fighting this battle for her life all while simultaneously trying to navigate not only motherhood, but motherhood of a sick child.


I’ve been mentally trying to get it together because we really don’t have a choice but to host another fundraiser of some sort at this point. Not only help us with bills but help us throw Autumn the kick ass 6th birthday party she deserves. If Autumn’s tumor is stable on her next MRI which is May 17th she’ll be able to get her port out (her port is what caused her to go septic this week) 


So this would be Autumn’s first birthday since her 1st birthday she’ll celebrate without being on chemotherapy. This is huge for us. I don’t know why I’m rambling but that’s my plan. I think lol. So here I am, putting my pride aside to make it happen.


We were so grateful the past couple of years to not only receive support from fundraising, but from generous organizations in the area. Unfortunately once covid hit, the organization assistance was halted as well. I did everything in my power to keep a roof over our heads and stretch the little money we had. Before Autumn got sick, we had a savings for a rainy day...I  wasn't prepared for it to rain so long.

We know a lot of people have been struggling through this pandemic so if you cant donate, please share this fundraiser to help us get the world out. 

We’re so appreciative for all the support we’ve received thus far.  

Autumn is asking for a room makeover for her 6th birthday. So any funds collected with go, not only towards bills and necessities, but towards giving Autumn the kick ass room and birthday she deserves. She has sacrificed so much of her childhood over the past 5 years, the least I can do is put my pride aside to give her this.

Please don't hesitate to message me with any questions  or suggestions.
We are open and grateful for any type of help or ideas!
