Wendis' Fight Against Cancer Fund

Donation protected

Hello Everyone,
My name is Gerson, my wife(Erika) and I created this page for Wendi,  we will be posting and she will too from time to time.  
At this time I would like to share a little bit of what my sister-in-law is going through. She went into the hospital to get checked for a cough and back pain. Little did she expect to be admitted over these syptoms. Doctors would come in and out but said very little, we were told in the beginning it may be tuberculosis and she was placed in isolation for four days. She underwent what seemed like endless tests, scans and MRIs. Finally Friday came along with her oncologist. She was diagnosed with Breast Cancer stage 4. We were told the main tumor is so embeded in her breast that not even a self exam would detect it. Only a mammogram but at 27 years old, who would have thought about it. Of course this was horrible news but she only thought of Brandon, her son and how much she loves him. So the fight began. She is currently in a battle for her life, she is undergoing chemo and staying strong. She is a fenomenal woman and a wonderful mom. We are all lucky to have her in our lives.
I leave you with the her words;

"Hello Everyone, my name is Wendi and I am a 27 year old single mom. The reason why this go fund me page was created is because I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer on July 31,2015. My doctors were kind of baffled because of my age and the fact that there is no history of cancer in my family. Their diagnosis wasn't a positive one but i'm staying optimistic in that I have a fighting chance. After all I have a little boy that needs me and I need him. I would like to ask for donations, if you are able, I am more than appreciative. The funds will go directly to any cost of treatment or anything else that may be needed to aliviate the financial strain that comes with fighting cancer. I still don't know what's ahead but I am thankful to have my family besides me."

Thank you for helping Wendi fight against breast cancer.
