Dana Clay's Fight Against Breast Cancer

My sister, Dana Clay, was diagnosed with stage 2a breast cancer in November 2022. She has a long and somewhat unknown road ahead of her. She started chemotherapy in December, then will have surgery, followed by radiation treatment and years of hormone therapy.

Dana is a private, independent person. Asking for help is challenging for her, but right now she needs our love and help. She will be taking a sabbatical from her much-loved job as an English teacher at Downingtown West High School in Downingtown, Pa. She will be out of work during the large majority of 2023 and could use any help she can get. She has the love and support of her immediate family, her extended family, and her work family, but could also use kind words and donations, if possible, from the thousands of families she has touched during her tenure as a teacher. Any little bit can help them during the next year which will be full of unknowns and medical bills.

If you would like to send Dana support in the form of a message an email would be the best way to contact her.

Please bear in mind that it may take a while for Dana to get back to you; she is in the beginning of her treatment and needs to navigate the next year: a year that two months ago she thought would be very different than it will be.

Your good wishes, thoughts, and positivity would mean the world to Dana.

Thank you for considering a gift. We very much appreciate your support.
