Support Tiffany during her fight w Breast Cancer

Donation protected
Hello, friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers! My name is Patricia, and I am reaching out to you today with a heavy heart and a plea for help. My beloved sister, Tiffany, has been diagnosed with HER2+ Stage 4 breast cancer, and we are embarking on a difficult journey to fight this merciless disease. As we navigate through the challenges that lie ahead, we humbly ask for your support, both emotionally and financially, to ensure that Tiffany receives the best possible care and treatment. Together, let us rally around her in this battle and provide hope, strength, and the resources she needs to overcome breast cancer.

Tiffany was diagnosed with HER2+ Stage 4 Breast Cancer in April. She is on her fourth round of chemotherapy and has about four more sessions to go. Due to treatment side effects, she is not able to work so any help will take the stress off of finances so that she can focus on beating her battle with cancer. Every single donation, no matter the size, will be deeply appreciated and will contribute to Tiffany's fight against breast cancer. The proceeds will help her fix her van that needs the tires replaced, and will help her pay utility bills and help her with school supplies for the upcoming year.

Additionally, your emotional support and words of encouragement are invaluable. Please share this campaign with your networks, family, friends, and coworkers. Together, we can create a ripple effect of love and compassion, ensuring that Tiffany feels surrounded by a community that cares.

We cannot face this battle alone. We rely on the kindness and generosity of others to provide Tiffany with the fighting chance she deserves. Let us rally together, shoulder to shoulder, as a community united against breast cancer.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your consideration, support, and prayers. Together, we can help Tiffany win the battle with breast cancer and pave the way for a brighter and healthier future.

Hello all,

I wanted to share some news and knowing that news spreads fast I wanted to somewhat get ahead of it and inform those who do not know.

About 5 months ago I noticed a lump shortly after I stopped breastfeeding my youngest. Thinking it was nothing I didn’t get it checked out right away and just thought it was some milk ducts still clearing out. I went in 3 months after it appeared bc it was growing and hurting. The mammography doctor was concerned from the ultrasound and mammogram reports. Later a biopsy confirmed it was cancer. It is HER2 positive and a fast growing tumor considered inflammatory.

The oncologist wants to move as quickly as possible. I had a port placed yesterday 4/24 (to start chemo as soon as the other testing is done). I will have a PET scan today (4/25, I’m writing this at midnight ) and brain MRI May 1st. The PET scan will show if it is in other parts of my body. Right now they are staging it at a stage 3, bc the mass is larger than 5.5cm and the cancer is also in my lymph nodes.

It’s still really early on bc there isn’t a treatment plan in place but I will post with updates periodically. I’m remaining optimistic and we’re going to do everything possible to attack this. All good vibes are appreciated ☺️, and I truly believe everything will be ok .
