Recently my mother, Stephanie was diagnosed with stage 3 axial osteosarcoma. My mother has always been a strong and enduring woman despite facing many difficulties in her life. She has currently chosen not to seek treatment for her cancer. That being said we have time and I want us to make the most of it.

We have made many beautiful memories throughout our lives beside the ocean, her favorite place, and I would like to take her to visit the other side of the pacific for the first time. I wish we could afford it out of pocket but my mother has struggled financially after the passing of her late husband in 2020 to cancer and my husband, son and I are a one income family, therefore we have to hope this wish will become possible through the help of others and by selling odds and ends.

thank you for reading and, if you're able, for donating.

UPDATE: we are so grateful to those who have donated, through a separate donation we have met our goal! Originally the goal was set to $5000 and GoFundMe set an automated goal of $1600 which we have met! This will cover the cost of the flight, passport and meals which is huge!! I we were expecting Littleton no donations so the fact that this much of the trip can be covered is an enormous gift. We so excited to make these precious memories!
