Aid Our Mom's Stage 4 Cancer Journey

Supporting My Mom Through Stage 4 Breast Cancer

Hi, we are Rachel and Emily, our mom's two daughters. We are raising funds to support my mom, who has been diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer.

Our relationship has been complicated — and with that we have carried a lot of distance. But even with the pain and history between us, we don’t want to see her face this alone.

She’s currently living in Los Angeles and is struggling to manage her care, finances, and daily needs. My sister and I have been doing what we can, but we don’t live nearby — traveling back and forth is emotionally and financially draining. On top of her treatment, she’s now trying to relocate across the country to move back to New Jersey, which adds a whole new layer of stress and expense.

This GoFundMe is to help cover the costs of:
  • Medical treatment and prescriptions
  • Travel expenses for her care and for us to support her in person
  • Moving costs and transition support for her relocation
  • Basic living needs during this overwhelming time

This isn’t a story of a perfect family coming together — it’s one of showing up anyway, because no one should have to go through something like this completely alone.

Thank you for reading, for donating if you can, and for sharing this with others who might be able to help.
