Jada Beating Glio

Hello Family, Friends, and kind-hearted individuals who extend their compassion.
We are reaching out to you with heavy hearts but also with hope, for the life of Jada Nowell.
On May 17th, Jada got some really tough news - she found out she had a brain tumor. Just two weeks before that, she started having really bad headaches and couldn't keep any food down. She went to the emergency room, but they thought it was just a bad case of the flu. Even though she kept feeling awful, the doctors initially thought it wasn't anything serious. But when her symptoms didn't get better, she went back to the ER.
That's when the doctors said she needed surgery. They were hoping the tumor wasn't cancerous, but even the idea of having surgery was a shock for Jada. Imagine being 22 years old, someone who loved going to the gym and taking care of herself, and suddenly hearing that you need a major operation. But Jada didn't let this news knock her down. She's a real fighter, and she faced the surgery head-on.
On June 8, 2023, she had the surgery, and just a week later, she got more tough news - the tumor was a type called glioblastoma. It's a really serious kind of brain cancer. While Jada was trying to get back to her normal routine of walking and enjoying life, those nasty headaches came back. While she was waiting for a chance to be part of a clinical trial at Duke, which is one of the best hospitals for treating brain cancer, she got even more devastating news - the tumor was starting to grow back.
And then, on August 24th, Jada had to go through another surgery. Right now, she's in the ICU, fighting hard. Let me tell you, Jada is one of the strongest young ladies I've ever known. She's not giving up, and her whole family is right there with her, supporting her every step of the way. That's where you come in.
We all know how awful cancer is. It's not just the sickness itself, but it also brings a lot of costs. There are surgeries, doctor visits, treatments, medicines, and a bunch of other expenses that add up really quickly. That's why we're asking for your support. It doesn't matter if it's a small amount or a big one - every bit helps. We're so thankful for all the prayers, calls, and donations that you can give to help Jada and our family during this incredibly tough time.
So, if you can, please lend a hand. Cancer might be tough, but together, we're tougher.
