With permission from Kelsey, I ask you to join me in a benefit dance class to support her and her family in this time of need. I donβt know many of the details, only what she has publicly shared. Kelsey has always been a fierce athlete with a kind heart. Please read below for what Kelsey has shared
β¨Itβs my birthday, and it feels relevant to share today some pretty devastating news Iβve been holding onto for a while. Iβve been diagnosed with stage 4 triple negative breast cancer. After my mastectomy this summer, they found tumors in my spine and liver. I was medevacked from Germany to Walter Reed hospital in Maryland early September and have been receiving treatment here since. But prognosis is poor and the despair is real. They said 6 months to a year, maybe 18 months if Iβm lucky. Made it very clear I need to choose where to spend the last year of my life. My grief of having my future ripped away from me is overwhelming and I donβt know what else to say to describe how life shattering this is.
My therapist says I need to be more open to receiving love and support. So here I am sharing such deeply personal news so publicly. Mostly if you can just pray for me however you pray, send me healing energy during your meditations, make a wish on my behalf, pass those good vibes, write me love letters or memories or something you think would brighten my day, thatβs what I need most. Belief that miracles exist and I could be one. Hope that somehow I can still beat this.β¨
I will be posting this with the ticket link. Please share. My hope is that we can make a big impact for her β€οΈ
