Please help Ashley continue her Cancer Journey

Hello ! My family asked me to update my
go fund me account and I didn’t know how without it looking like I was doing one for myself .. I hate that!! But anyways, I’m Ashley Blanford, and I’ve been battling cancer for 3 years now! I wanna first thank you all for all the donations in the past that has helped me thus far and most importantly, the continuous prayers on my behalf.
I was diagnosed with two very aggressive types of breast cancer known as triple negative and HER2 positive in 2021! The average life expectancy is around 15 months give or take a few for this type of cancer. I have surpassed that by several several months and for that I’m grateful. To know God is carrying me through this brings me peace! He’s not done with me, I just need some help with what I have in store next ! Currently, I’ve been on 11 different chemos without a break during these last 3 year. The last one I had to stop, because it was literally killing me. I now suffer from several different things all caused from chemo and being on it for so long. Again, I’m currently out of options ! Last year I was referred to Nashville. Now I’m currently being referred to and seeking treatment at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio in hopes they can help me prolong my life .
My cancer is stage 4 ! I have 7 tumors in my lungs now and also some spots in some lymph nodes above my lungs and by my esophagus! I’m completely broken and devastated! I wanna have the means to fight and be here for my family as long as God allows me ! My husband and I have 5 daughters between us, every extra penny we get goes in caring for their needs. Brian , my husband is my sole caregiver.. he takes me
to all my numerous weekly appts, including the 7 hour drive to Cleveland. I have no one else who can do this , therefore our income is very limited!
So I come to all of you once again to help me continue my journey … I only pray one day I am healed or in remission and can pay it forward to so many!! I love you all !! We will always be #AshleyStrong
