Stephie's Medical Support Fund

As we grow up, we all look up to someone or many “someones”. One of mine has been my sister Stephanie. As a little girl she was my idol; beautiful, kind and funny. I was a tomboy and didn’t care for dolls, except for the black barbie doll she sent me that I named "Stephanie". We had moved away at that point and she was no longer close by but at least I had her with me. She has been my mentor as a mother, giving words of experience and reassurance but also as a human being. She has grace, kindness, humbleness, unconditional love, soulfulness, generosity and calmness to name a few.

She has been through many hardships in life and has endured them all with her beautiful smile. She is a mother of 3 amazing boys, whom she loves more than anything and has always stood by them, no matter the circumstances.  

Back in May, she had noticed a lump in her breast. Growing up she had always had cysts that would come and go but this one wasn’t going away. She had a mammogram and was told that it was just another cyst. 3 weeks later, changes started happening. Back pain was more extreme, sought out the attention of a chiropractor. She continued to feel that something…. Just…… wasn’t… right. She sought out the opinion of a specialist. She was booked for a biopsy and her surgery came, it revealed that she has breast cancer. This past week we have been waiting for the oncologist appointment and yesterday was that day.

Yesterday, was a very emotional, mind numbing, day…….

Stage 4, non-curable, breast cancer.  It has spread to her lymph nodes, bones and liver. Treatments are being issued immediately to slow and hopefully stop the cancer from spreading farther. Financially wise will be a struggle, without work and no benefits. Her mobility is limited and pain is extreme. 

She needs all the support she can get. Mental, emotional, physical and financial.

Please consider a donation because every little bit will help.
