Help Destini Fight: Cancer, A Second Heart Transplant & Supporting Her Family

Hi, my name is Bianka, and I’m creating this fundraiser on behalf of my niece Tracee and her daughter Destini. Tracee isn’t just my niece—she’s like a sister. We grew up together, and I’ve always felt a special bond with her. I was waiting at the hospital the day Destini was born, and I’ve tried to be there through many milestones, including her first heart transplant.

Now, Destini is facing an incredibly tough road. Just after her 18th birthday, she was diagnosed with PTLD—a rare form of Hodgkin's Lymphoma. On top of that, her heart is failing, and she’s in need of a second transplant.

Tracee is currently unable to work as she focuses on being there for Destini through treatments and hospital stays. She also has two young sons under 11 who need her care. As you can imagine, the medical bills and day-to-day expenses are piling up fast.

I’m asking for help to ease some of that financial burden so Tracee can focus on what matters most—being there for her children.

Your support will help cover:

  • Medical and treatment-related expenses
  • Travel and lodging for hospital stays
  • Essentials for the household and her two sons
  • Giving Tracee time to care for Destini without the added stress of financial strain

If you can't donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser or simply keeping them in your thoughts and prayers. Every bit of love and support means more than you know.

With heartfelt thanks,

Bianka (Auntie BeBe)
