Support Cassie in her Cancer Battle

Donation protected
Hi All! Amanda here. I’m Cassie’s oldest daughter. I’m trying to help my parents out as much as I can during this difficult time.

As most of you know, Father’s Day weekend of 2022 my mom, Cassie, was rushed to the hospital and underwent emergency brain surgery for a tumor.

That’s when our lives changed forever.

Mom was diagnosed with Brain cancer. (Glioblastoma)

She had the tumor removed and like her true self, she was beating the odds and was up talking after surgery, her eyes had their sparkle back and that big gorgeous smile was back. She was even up and walking around which with the type of cancer she has, shouldn’t be doing - she should be like a vegetable but that’s not my mom.

Fast Forward to about October 2023. We found new tumors had formed and this time Gamma Knife was needed to get them shrank down. In December 2023 she went and had the procedure done. Good news is that worked.

April 2024 just after my parent’s 20th wedding anniversary is when things started to decline.

Mom had a seizure. This time needing emergency responders take her to the ER where she was unconscious in the ICU. She was in the hospital for a week before she came home.

Since then my beautiful, courageous mother has been in and out of the hospital. The cancer is taking over. There is a new tumor now, this one there is no surgery or Gamma Knife to help get rid of it due to complications.

She has been so optimistic throughout everything going on. My Step Dad Jesse has been by her side and at every doctor appointment since day one. He is currently her primary care giver. Mom can’t work anymore and Jesse is doing everything in his power to keep everything flowing and take care Mom.

He can’t do this alone and needs help. The bills are piling up, and that’s where I need you.

We all know neither of them would ask for help. But I am asking for them.

Mom and Jesse need help paying for the medical bills coming in and they are aren’t cheap.

Anything donated will go towards medical bills. We all know times are tough on everyone right now, so I get it if you can’t help. I just ask you to share and maybe someone else out there can hear my plea.

They are two hard working people would give anything to help anyone even if they were struggling to.


I will post updates about Moms status as I can. We do ask at this time to please reach out to Jesse or Me about visiting or information as Mom can’t use her phone well at this time.

Thank you for all your help and please keep praying for Mom.


If you'd rather make a cash or check donation to feel more comfortable please reach out to me and I can get get funds where they need to go.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
