PLEASE HELP SUPPORT THE RIBBON OF HOPE,
This cause is deeply personal to me, as my mother and other loved ones in my family have been diagnosed with various types of cancer. The word "cancer" brings a flood of emotions and countless questions: Why? It’s overwhelming to face the uncertainties and seek ways to help.
My dear mother, Olive, was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer in a heartbreaking manner. Prior to her emergency hospital visit, we had no idea she had cancer. Despite her regular doctor visits, routine check-ups, and lab work, there had never been any indication of cancer. What we initially thought was a simple stomach bug turned out to be devastating news. On top of the cancer diagnosis, my mother also suffered from severe dementia.
The doctors eventually took me and my sisters into a private room to deliver the crushing news: there was nothing more they could do, and my mother was given less than a week to live. Hearing this, we were devastated and broke down in tears. The doctor, deeply moved by our situation, tried to offer comfort and support, but our world was turned upside down. My mother passed away just three days later, on November 5, 2019.
In memory of those we have lost and in support of those who are still battling and fighting for another day, please help me raise $1,000 to assist cancer patients and families facing financial hardships during their battles. Sharing a little about my story is important because life is unpredictable, and sometimes a single breath can be the difference between hope and goodbye.
Your donation, whether large or small, can provide vital relief and support during these challenging times. Every contribution helps ease the burden and brings hope to those who need it most. Please give what you can to make a meaningful difference. With warm hearts and deep gratitude, thank you, and God bless!
