Barbara Ricketts Cancer Journey

Barb 2024

Hello everyone...I have set up this GoFund Me fundraising campaign for my mother, Barbara. In 2017 she was diagnosed with Stage 4 throat cancer. She fought like hell and BEAT IT!!! Unfortunately this isn't the end of her cancer story, now it's back. As of right now we don't know what kind of cancer it is. All we know is that is has spread and is in stage 4 again. The cancer is in her lungs, esophagus and lymph nodes. She will soon begin chemotherapy and in the future immunotherapy. My hope here is to help provide her with some peace of mind by helping pay for her medical expenses. My mom is a fighter and is by no means backing down from this fight. But with that being said it is stage 4 and these treatments are very costly. While they aren't going to be able to cure her they will give her additonal time to spend with her friends and family. Thank you for your love and support!!! Nikki
