Supporting Lillie: A Fight Against Breast Cancer

Hi there! I am reaching out on behalf of the wonderful mother, sister, daughter, and teacher, Lillie Gamez.

You might know Lillie as a devoted mother of two or a dedicated art teacher who is helping to shape the future of her students. Lillie has recently been dealt a heart-wrenching blow of being diagnosed with an aggressive form of Stage II breast cancer, which has now spread to her lymph nodes.

Watching Lillie juggle her role as a mother and an educator, all while grappling with the weight of this diagnosis, has been simultaneously heartbreaking and awe-inspiring. Her days lately have been filled with doctor visits, scans, and difficult discussions about upcoming surgeries and the probability of chemotherapy. Through it all though, Lillie remains strong for her children, students, and the family who loves her dearly.

As you can imagine, navigating the intricacies of treatment has been very daunting. While Lillie is fortunate to have some insurance, the costs associated with comprehensive cancer care, especially for such an aggressive type, are not entirely covered. She is considering all viable treatment options, including holistic approaches, and wants to ensure she has access to the best care possible for her unique situation, even if it means traveling out of Del Rio.

With courage and determination, Lillie has faced life challenges with courage and determination, and this time is no different. As with many hardships in life, this battle shouldn’t be fought alone or be burdened with financial stress. So, we are humbly asking for your help.

Please consider donating, sharing this fundraiser, or even sending an encouraging message to Lillie. Every contribution, whether financial or emotional, can make a profound difference in Lillie’s journey to healing and overcoming this fight.

The funds raised will directly assist Lillie in covering expenses like:

-Specialized out-of-network treatments,

-Travel for consultations and therapies,

-Prescribed medications and potential side-effect management,

-Hair preservation therapies, like cold cap treatments,

-Essential scans and diagnostic tests,

-Doctor consultation fees and other medical expenses,

-Integrative and naturopathic treatments,

-And continued therapy to ensure the best possible prognosis.

Your contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a tangible difference in Lillie’s journey to recovery, ensuring she can focus on healing and being there for her two beautiful children. Thank you for taking the time to read about Lillie’s story. Together, we can make a world of difference in her fight against cancer.
