Help Vanessa “CANCERVIVE” After Major Surgery

Donation protected
Vanessa is one of the greatest women I have the pleasure of knowing. Over nine years ago, she was diagnosed with a very rare cancer called Carcinoid NETS. Since then, she has bravely endured six major surgeries. Recently, she faced yet another surgery, which was supposed to be laparoscopic. However, after several hours of trying, the surgeons realized they were nowhere close to being done. The procedure took a major turn, and after some significant complications, the surgery was finally completed in 8.5 hours.

Vanessa is a waitress who loves her job and the people she meets every day. Unfortunately, due to the complications from her recent surgery, she won’t be able to return to work for an extended period. Since she only earns money when she works and has no paid sick days, this situation has placed a significant financial strain on her.

Vanessa is the type of person who will drop everything to help anyone in need, yet she is too worried about burdening others to ask for help when she really needs it. Right now, she truly needs our support.

We are aiming to raise $5,000 to help cover her general healthcare and monthly expenses during this difficult time. Anything you can contribute will make a tremendous difference and allow Vanessa to focus on her recovery without the added stress of financial obligations.

Her mantra throughout these years has been, "I CANCERVIVE!" and she continues to fight with incredible strength and determination. If we can reach this goal, Vanessa can take the time she needs to heal and not worry about making ends meet. I know she would appreciate it more than she could ever express.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to read Vanessa’s story and for any support you can offer.

With deep gratitude,
