Nancy's Memorial Fund

Hello! Thanks for clicking!
We are trying to raise money for a wonderful woman, Nancy Gibson, who was recently, and unexpectedly, diagnosed with an aggressively spreading cancer, and needs help covering living expenses, medical bills, and recovery costs.
Nancy is amazingly kind, giving, loving, and a very jovial person. She is a positively outgoing woman, loves being with family and friends, and frequently says “Friendship is one of the most important things in life.”
Nancy is the proud mother of one son, Kyle, and was k for more than 35 years to her husband, Mike, before he heartbreakingly passed away less than a year ago after dealing with his own chronic illness and disability.
Being the sole source of income, after Mike’s passing, was hard on Nancy & Kyle. Sadly, they weren’t able to afford funeral services, and, after a time, Kyle quit school to work two jobs and help pay the rent, bills, and leftover medical expenses from Mike’s illness.
As Nancy was trying to cope with the loss of her husband, more tragedy struck; her father, Clare, and favorite auntie, Julie, also passed away within a few short weeks of each other. Not wanting to take too much time off, and miss out on precious pay, Nancy took a short trip to Arizona with her sister, Susie, to wrap up her dad’s affairs.
This additional stress caused Nancy's health to be compromised. Suffering silently, afraid of the possible medical costs, the pain became unbearable, and in January, Nancy finally conceded, and went to the doctor who didn't detect anything unusual at the time. Still in pain at the beginning of March, she returned to the doctor who ordered further testing and found an inescapable cause…cancer.
Three fast days later Nancy was admitted for an extensive EMERGENCY surgery involving a complete hysterectomy, removal of peritoneum, and removal of cancerous masses on her bladder, diaphragm, spleen, rib cage and several lymph nodes, along with a partial resection of her colon. So. Much. Cancer.
Money that is raised will help pay for medical and recovery needs, along with the cost of living while she is unable to work. Worrying about finances is an added stress, and huge burden, that our beloved Nancy doesn’t need during the time when she needs to rest, relax, heal, recover, and spend important time with her loved ones.
Please help Nancy, and her only son, Kyle, who is facing losing another of his parents at a very young age. We are so grateful for any, ANY, offerings you choose to give, even if it’s only passing along this link.
And please keep the prayers coming as Nancy is still in very critical care.
