Help Kara Doolittle with medical expenses

Hi. My name is Lisa. My cousin Kara Doolittle who is just 33 was recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer and will soon undergo a double mastectomy.

 

If you know Kara you know she has been a true warrior for the past 4 1/2 years. While she was on a first date with Austin she suffered a devastating fall. She has had to battle through numerous surgeries just for the ability to walk. During her most recent surgery they used a piece of pelvic bone to rebuild her ankle joint. A follow up CT Scan to check the pelvic healing revealed a mass in her breast.

 

Kara now has another battle to face. Breast Cancer. She is facing this with the same warrior mentality that has gotten her through the multiple foot and ankle surgeries and I have no doubt she will

KICK CANCERS ASS. With our support.

 

Kara is a hard and dedicated worker. Through all her surgeries and time missing work she has never collected unemployment, fmla or disability. Unfortunately Kara does NOT have an option of short term disability while she heals from her double mastectomy.

 

Kara and Austin are in a position of needing to plan for their future family. This will involve fertility treatments. At this already difficult time they’re put in a position where they NEED to plan ahead. Unfortunately this is not covered by health insurance.

 

 

If you are able, please consider helping with the financial burden this brings. Dr appointments, copays, prescriptions… all add up very fast. Not to mention being out of work. If you’re not able to help in this way that’s ok too. Please just send thoughts, prayers, well wishes and positive vibes.

 

Please get your mammogram. Do a self exam and know your family history and risk factors
