Help Kimberly Beat Breast Cancer

I have found that I often have a hard time asking for help when I need it, but we are definitely in a time when we could really use all of the help we can get.

On April 6, 2017, I learned the terrible news that I had Stage 2B breast cancer.  The news completely floored me.  When I first felt the lump in my breast, I was extremely worried, but I was told it was probably nothing.  Fast forward two months and here we are.

Today I started 20 weeks of chemotherapy.  This will be followed up with several weeks of radiation, estrogen therapy and finally surgery removing my uterus and ovaries.  It will be a hard and long process, and I am so stressed.  I will not be able to work, and we learned that insurance will not cover everything we thought it would, like a wig and some anti-nausea medicine.  At the end of the day it's not only about money, it's about being able to heal and take care of my family as best I can.  

We really appreciate any and all help you are able to provide. Any leftover money will be donated to the Susan G. Komen charity helping others with breast cancer.  I will continue updating this page as often as I can as time and news progresses.
