Help Jessie fight her aggressive Breast Cancer ❤️

Donation protected
The Quebec medical system is a complete failure. The antibody that Jessie needs to fight her aggressive breast cancer is called Pertuzumab. It costs an exorbitant 60,000$ and is neither covered by medicare nor her private insurance. Please donate and share so that she can promptly commence treatment on May 8th!!
Any contributions are welcome.

Jessie Putre is a 42 year old mother of 2 young boys, ages 10 and 6. She goes beyond limits for her work, family, coworkers and friends. Jessie was diagnosed with an aggressive and recurring form of Breast Cancer by a private clinic (Grade 3, Her2 positive, Invasive Ductal Carcinoma) in March 2024. A week later, she had a total mastectomy. The costs and related expenses for emergency procedure amounted to $15,000, which she had to pay herself because the public medical system failed to act with urgency. With a history of breast cancer in her family, she proactively endeavoured to get a mammogram last year but was turned away by her general practitioner due to being a woman under 50 years of age. When she noticed a lump in her breast this year, she again turned to her family doctor for help but was told she would have to wait for her check-up as he was headed on vacation. Considering the alarming circumstances, Jessie made the right decision seeking private medical treatment. Unfortunately, it was too late as the cancer had already spread to her lymph nodes. Consequently, she now needs to undergo chemotherapy and radiation therapy in addition to receiving an antibody treatment specifically tailored for the 15-20% of women with breast cancer who are also Her2 positive.

The clock is ticking, her treatments are scheduled to start in early May.
Friends, family and compassionate members of the community, please donate to give Jessie a fighting chance to win her battle against Breast Cancer. May this nightmare come to an end so that she can get back to being a mother, a wife, and a dear friend to all those who know and love her.
Thank you all for supporting Jessie in her battle against Her2 Positive Breast Cancer.
