Amy's Breast Cancer Fight

Donation protected
My identical twin sister, Amy Burnett was suddenly and unexpectedly diagnosed with very aggressive Stage 2B Breast Cancer in late 2015 when she had just turned 36 years old and barely 8 months after giving birth to her new twin daughters, Savannah and Sophia Burnett. It has been a scary, long, and challenging road, but one Amy has continued to face with courage and faith.

She has already endured over 4 months of intensive chemotherapy treatments, having a central port, the intense surgery of a double mastectomy with lymph node removal, months of radiation treatments, 14 months of targeted chemotherapy, involved heart monitoring, and now is finally on the last phases of treatment, which includes hormone therapy and the 4-5 month process of reconstructive surgeries and treatments.

Amy had the first and most major of these reconstructive surgeries about 4 weeks ago, which because of the radiation damage, required permanently removing and repositioning a large back muscle to her chest. She will now need many physical therapy treatments to work on regaining the full use and range of her arm, shoulder, and back muscles again.
Amy faces massive amounts of medical bills for her necessary treatments.

Amy has done her best to try to manage the overwhelming financial load up until this point, given that the majority of this time she has been unable to work and has been raising her twin daughters as a single mother.

Please help out in any way you can, to help ease the significant financial stressors, so Amy can focus on facing her final treatments with more peace of mind, while still continuing to do just as wonderful of a job raising her 2 year old twin daughters. Amy has worked as a psychotherapist, helping others for many years and another goal of hers is to finish healing and beating the cancer so she can finally get back to giving to and inspiring others in need once again.
