My name is Tessa Valentine. I am hoping for some financial support from anyone that is able to help. Back in March 2025, I was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor on my c3 and c4 section of my spine. After an extensive surgery, the surgeons were only able to remove 1/8 of the tumor because of how it was wrapped around my spine and to prevent permanent paralysis. Because this tumor is aggressive, it has grown double its original size and is causing spinal fluid to pocket in my neck. Now it is time for another extensive surgery, on my birthday if all days, followed by radiation and chemotherapy. I have suffered with so much pain, weakness, and worry. My monthly expenses are not able to be paid while I am going through another surgery, rehab, and recovery. On the day of this second surgery, I will turn 27 years old. With God's blessings and kind hearts, I hope to see another birthday in 2026. Thank you for all that can help.
