Help Jacklyn fight Breast Cancer

Donation protected
My name is Melody and I have started this campaign to help my good friend Jacklyn in her fight against Breast Cancer. 
This beautiful wife and mother of 3 year old Ryler, and 4 month old twins, Blake and Kyle, was diagnosed a month ago with stage 2 Breast Cancer-Invasive Tubal Carcinoma. 
Recently, after further testing there was a second mass detected in the other breast, and she was also informed she tested positive for the BRCA2 (Cancer Gene). Which means a double Mastectomy, a Hysterectomy and Chemo. 
As an expectant mother of twins myself, I cannot imagine the emotional and financial strain she is under. It truly breaks my heart.  As if taking care of a 3 year old and newobrn twins isn't enough to deal with! 
Although insurance will cover the majority of her treatment, they will not cover it all. The cost of that, on top of the cost of what she will need to provide care for her children while recovering from multiple surgeries, and chemo, is quite straining. I am hoping to raise enough money to cover the cost of care she will need for herself and her children while undergoing and recovering from these procedures. I am also hoping we can raise enough money to help with any added or unexpected costs of hospital stays and surgeries. 
My daily motto is; Be Loving, Be Kind, Be Selfless.  We were put here to serve others in need.  Please help me be loving, kind and selfless by donating what you can and sharing this with others. 
Thank you!
