Help Cristina Underwood & Family Fight Cancer
Donation protected
First, thank you for being here. Cristina Underwood and her beautiful family have been a shining light, guiding so many through dark times. Now is the time to reciprocate and prove that love is, indeed, always the answer.
Cristina has been diagnosed with a stage 3 sex cord stromo tumor, more simply put a rare ovarian cancer. After many tests these past few weeks and a biopsy, the oncologist has recommended that she begin chemotherapy on October 20th. Cristina will have 3 chemo sessions, one every 21 days. After that, the doctor will see how she is responding to decide whether to perform her surgery then or form another course of treatment. Cristina will also need a hysterectomy and several other procedures thereafter. As we all know, cancer affects the whole family in every way. Cristina and Dave are very hands on, loving parents. Slade has started therapy to help him, at 11 years old, learn to cope during this scary time. Cristina will need to hire help cleaning the house also. This all adds up financially.
Throughout this tremendous fight for her life, Cristina will certainly need to take time off from work to get the rest and healing needed and Dave will work from home to be available to her. As you can imagine, this treatment is expensive, and Cristina and her family could use all of the financial support they can get. Your generosity can help lighten the load, so that she can focus on recovery. Your kind donation will go directly to Cristina, Dave and their son Slade, to help deal with the financial repercussions of her current condition.
If you wish for other ways to contribute, please go to https://www.mealtrain.com/trains/nn8oo6 to sign up for dinners, lunches for Slade at school if you have a child that goes to True North also, gift cards are extremely appreciated for restaurants, Publix, Uber Eats, Grub Hub, Door Dash, etc. You may contact me through this page. I am happy to help get the gift cards or anything needed to her.
Lastly but most importantly, please keep this information to the adults and refrain from telling the kids. Cristina and her family want to allow Slade to receive any information on her condition from them directly and also to let him tell his friends when he feels ready. Thank you in advance for your kindness and support.
