My mother, Donna Lopez, or “Mommy D” as many people call her, has been battling Stage IV Colorectal Cancer over the last year. She was diagnosed in early 2021 and with the many support and prayers we received, we were able to get her through the first course of treatment that she needed right away. She went through 8 cycles of chemotherapy and we have seen significant results after, but we are not done with the fight yet. We’ve recently learned that my mom’s condition is progressing and upon seeking a second opinion from a local oncologist, we were given a new treatment plan that needs to be started immediately. She will undergo more cycles of chemotherapy to hopefully shrink the masses, prevent them from spreading more, and eventually, have them resected. Each cycle will be done every 14 days and will cost us around P65,000 ($1250 USD). It’s a pretty hefty amount that we will need help with. We have been saving up for her treatments and surgeries, but what we have isn’t enough yet. My mom has been a mentor, a friend, a partner, and a mother to many, while she was raising us. She has always been our inspiration, our motivation, and our guiding light. She has made a huge impact on many people’s lives and she deserves to be part of more. We know that many of us are still recovering and finding our way through this pandemic, but we are still hoping for your support, in any way possible. We believe that there are still many people with kind hearts who will lend a helping hand and we need your help to reach them. Help us fight this battle and give our Mommy D more years of laughter, inspiration, video games, and red velvet cupcakes!
