Kelsey vs breast cancer gene (BRCA 2)
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Laura. My mom, Wendy dyer, and I are fundraising for Kelsey. If anyone knows our Kelsey knows she is a smart, beautiful, cheerful woman who is very independent. Kelsey was recently diagnosed positive for the BRCA2 gene. BRCA+ means she has a 97% percent chance of breast cancer at a very young age. Her only chance of long-term survival will be to undergo a double mastectomy and, in a few years, a hysterectomy. We are setting this up because she is struggling to pay her medical and day to day bills. She is less than a year at her current state job and has no paid time off. We are hoping to raise a little money so she can face what lies ahead without worrying about taking time off so she can focus on healing.
Please, Kelsey is a giver and does everything for others and would never ask for help, so we would like to do this for her.
Thank you in advance,
Laura and Wendy
