Hi, my name is name is Vanessa, and I’m a single mother navigating the most difficult of my life.
On July 2nd, what I thought would be a short hospital visit turned into a life changing moment: I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer — specifically, Andenocarcinoma of the Lung.
Since that day, everything has changed.
My Fight Against Cancer
I’ve begun an aggressive treatment plan, which includes:
Rybrevant: a targeted therapy for my specific cancer type
Carboplaitin: chemotherapy drug that slows the spread of cancer
Vitamin B12 injections and daily folic acid: to support my body through side effects.
Treatment started with weekly infusions until my 8th around and now we are doing treatment every 21 days and it takes a physical and emotional toll — but I’m staying strong, determined to fight this with everything I have for myself and my kids.
Why I Need Your Help
The cost of this fight is staggering. While I focus on healing, I’m Faceing Mounting medical bills and hospital expenses, ongoing treatment and medical cost.
Essential medications and Injections
Loss of income due to my inability to work during treatment
Everyday living expenses as a single parent
That’s why I’m reaching out — I simply can’t do this alone.
How your Support Helps

My on going cancer treatments

Basic living cost during this period I cannot work
