Hi, everyone Happy Holidays! Well a little about me is I'm lucky to call myself a mother and a step mother to three beautiful teenagers. I can say I'm very lucky to be engaged to my best friend and my partner Jacques, in this wild ride. We all live a very busy life with one of our children working, the other two in school and Jacques and I both working full time. We always take Sunday together weather it's watching a movie, cooking together, or just being lazy we always try to do something as a family. 

The last 17 months have been extremely trying for us, on July 1, 2022 I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer, I underwent a bilateral mastectomy with reconstructive surgery on September 1, 2022. I completed my reconstruction  surgery on May 15, 2023. Well, on my one year check up in September with my breast Dr, we found another lump!! It's again stage 2 cancer in the same breast after a mastectomy. I had a third surgery October 26, 2023. We have since learned that it is an extremely aggressive estrogen based type of cancer and I will be starting chemotherapy this month so we can prevent it from spreading to other parts of my body, and radiation will follow afterwards. We have a treatment plan in place and the ball has started rolling. We are going through this now so I can watch all three of our children graduate, get married, have kids ( I want to be a grandma someday)!

I'm asking for help while we go through this journey, my fiance will be the soul provider for our house hold of 5. We are looking at about 6-8 months of treatment (if it goes as planned) I won't be able to work and with the holidays coming up we could really use any help that anyone can give. Thank you so much and again Happy Holidays ☃️
