I’m a single mom with cancer, fighting hard to be there for [my son]
I am a single mom to a wonderful 13- year son. I’m also living with cancer and I’m fighting hard to be there for him, to watch him grow up.
In early August of 2020, my cancer returned – two different breast cancers, one in each breast. One was stage 4 cancer, having spread to my liver and lymph system. The doctors gave me 18 months to live. That was almost 3 years ago.
By January 2021, I had to stop working so I could focus full-time on treatment and healing. I keep up with my physical, emotional, and spiritual healing journey by spending as much time with my son as I can.
With Living Journeys support, I can afford to pay rent and bills, as well as keep up with a growing teenager. They’ve also helped with travel reimbursement, weekly meals, emotional therapy for both of us, and so much more. I don’t know where we would be without Living Journeys.
Thank you,
