Fighting Stage 4 Cancer: Support Eileen’s Journey

Eileen’s story :

Eileen has always been an inspiration to everyone who knows her. She has been working at MMS in the Martin county school district for 19 years. In addition to being a loving and devoted mother to Kelcie and Alyssa, and a caring wife to John, she is also a loving Memaw to her two grandkids. Eileen’s infectious spirit and genuine love for her family and friends has touched the hearts of many.

However, life took an unexpected turn when Eileen was diagnosed with stage 3 esophageal cancer. Despite grappling with the physical and emotional toll of the disease, Eileen has shown exemplary strength and resilience. Refusing to give up, she continues to fight with every ounce of courage she possesses. This journey will be

very hard, but it is manageable and she is a fighter.

Many people have been asking how they can help, and this fundraiser will allow friends near and far the ability to provide Eileen and her family with support. We all know medical costs and treatments can quickly become overwhelming; therefore, we are hoping to raise funds to help alleviate some of that financial burden so the family can focus on each other. Also, if Eileen needs to take unpaid family leave to get the treatment and surgery she needs in the future. 

Every donation helps, and no gift is too small. Thank you in advance for your kindness, generosity and most importantly for being a source of love and strength for the Durbin Family.
