Help Michelle beat Cancer.

Donation protected
We are extremely saddened to hear that Michelle Haddock was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer and Lymphoma.

She is a loving mother of a daughter (aged 26), 3 sons (aged 24, 18 and 17) and a loving wife to her husband of 28 years.

She started undergoing the grueling chemo process and will continue treatment for 6 months including a double mastectomy, 5 weeks of radiation at 5 days a week for 25 sessions and then will undergo reconstructive surgery. Her treatment is tentatively scheduled to end January 2024 which will put her out of work for over a year.

During these treatments, she had to endure another tough obstacle when she had a negative reaction to the medication causing her respiratory distress. Soon after the treatments started, Michelle inevitably started losing her hair which as you know is a devastating reality.

Recently additional lab tests were performed, but they were not the results she hoped for. Instead, she was informed that they found bacteria in her blood and was diagnosed with diverticulitis, an infection of her colon that wound her back into the hospital.

As you can imagine, this has taken a toll on Michelle and her family, physically, emotionally, and financially but she is a fighter. She is strong and she is going to beat this.

We all know Michelle as the one who always has taken care of everyone else without asking for anything in return. It’s now time to take care of her. If you can find it in your heart to donate, any amount, it would be greatly appreciated.
This would help her and the family with the medical bills that are quickly piling up and would be one less burden to worry about. She needs to save all of her energy to fight this devastating disease.

She stilll has a long road ahead of her and will need all the family and friend support we can give her.
