Help Elizabeth Fight Cancer!
Donation protected
Help Elizabeth win the biggest battle she has ever faced.
In February 2023, Elizabeth was diagnosed with a very aggressive rare breast cancer, Metaplastic Breast Carcinoma with lymphatic involvement.
Metaplastic Breast Cancer (MpBC) is a rare and aggressive malignancy that accounts for .2-5% of all breast cancers. It is almost always triple negative (no hormone receptors), but this one has some very weak hormone receptors (ERT).
Elizabeth is a loving mother of three kids, Collin-7, Landen-16, and Mikaylah-24. Elizabeth's biggest wish in this fight is for her kids to have their mom. Elizabeth is a loving wife to Nic, and puts her family first. Her family is her greatest treasure and she spends her free time camping with her family and designing crafts. Any activities spent with family and creating memories are her favorite times.
Elizabeth is a Branch Manager at First Community Credit Union in Fairview Heights, IL. Due to the urgent severity of this aggressive cancer, Elizabeth has had to begin her chemotherapy immediately. This has her seeing doctors and getting treatment every week, and unfortunately missing some days at work for at least the next 8 months.
We are creating this fund to help with medical expenses and to cover the loss of income she will be faced with over months and months of treatment. We want Elizabeth to be able to focus on her recovery, without the added stress of financial burdens.
Please consider supporting Elizabeth in her journey and keep her in your hearts and prayers.
This fund was created by her loving work family at First Community Credit Union and we hope you will share her story.
