Unyielding Strength: A Mom’s Triumph Over Cancer!

Donation protected
Dear Esteemed Supporters,

I am Emily, standing united with my resilient older brother, Andrew, as we firmly support our extraordinary mom, Laurie—a true hero courageously confronting breast cancer.

Enduring 16 rounds of chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation treatments under the unwavering guidance of her dedicated oncologist, her indomitable strength radiates.

Just last week, at the age of 72, my mother bravely returned to work. Yet, witnessing her navigate through the ensuing challenges tugs at my heart. It pains me to see her working through nausea or explaining the personal battle she faces, now distinguished by the hats she wears, her hair lost to the battle.

Devoting six days a week to her job, she deserves respite, though she would never request it. As she progresses through the upcoming phases, missing work means her disability leave falls short of covering her wages completely.

Your support serves as a genuine lifeline, alleviating the financial burden and allowing her to concentrate on the crucial task of healing. ❤️‍

Thank you for being an integral part of my mom's support network as she embarks on this cancer-free future journey.
