Gina’s Breast Cancer Support Fund

This is my friend Gina. She’s been fighting an uphill battle with breast cancer since January of 2023. Her grace, faith, positivity, and perseverance have been incredible. What she has been through in the past 13 months is beyond my capability to explain, yet, through it all she’s been a wonderful wife, Mother, & daughter. I am so proud & grateful that she is my friend.

Since the start, she’s been private about her struggles. Gina, her husband (Jeff Lewis), daughter (Phallyn Lerner), and Mother (Victoria Merlo) have been an incredible team; fighting each battle as they come, rejoicing in the wins, and remaining positive through what lately has been set back after setback…. Everyday they are her advocates, her care takers, & her cheerleaders. Their love is unwaivering & inspiring.

The purpose of this fundraiser is to assist Gina & Jeff with the costs of Gina’s treatment (past & present) and to provide support for Jeff & Phallyn so they can continue to be by her constant side in this difficult time. (Update: this fund will also be used for final arrangements) Although they don’t talk about it, I know the financial burden of this fight has been daunting.

If you cannot contribute, please pray for Gina & her family in this difficult time.

Much love,

Emily
