⛈️ HURRICANE🏠 & HEALTH🚑 UPDATE:
Thank you to everyone that checked in with us, like everyone I’ve had limited connection and we’ve been busy.
We were in the path of hurricane Milton and ended up being one of the hardest hit locations and had more damage to our home than we ever have.
We have been at Bobby’s parents while we had no power- all 6 of us in an RV that sleeps 4-5. Not complaining. I am Thankful that we are somewhere safe dry and clean while we replace the floor and possibly the drywall in our master bedroom. I just got notified that our power is back on so we will return home as soon as we know if our homes foundation is cracked or what needs to be fixed and why so much water pooled into the house.
We want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to my bonus mom and dad that have been so hospitable and helpful! Also to Alberto’s Kids Nonprofit Organization for donating some baby essentials and some things to help get all of this moisture out of our house! My precious sister in law, Kelly Rairick Fain &Josh who made sure we had what we needed during this mess.

☢️ Health wise, I start chemotherapy and radiation on the same day: Wednesday the 23rd. I have been feeling symptoms of the advanced stages and it hasn’t been great- I’m always faint and nauseous. My port hurts most of the time but I’m hoping I get used to it since it’s just under a week old. Paisley jumped off of the loft bed in the RV onto my chest and I saw stars it hurt so badly 🤣 Chemo days will be Wednesdays and are expected to be about 6 hours, radiation is going to be daily Monday-Friday. I met the remainder of my cancer care team on Tuesday and let me tell you- those people finally seem to care about me, a rare feeling in doctors offices these days.

Thank you so much to everyone keeping my family in your prayers. It’s still a lot and I’m not trying to be morbid but I’m just thankful to be here.

I had my appointment yesterday, it was a really difficult day processing all of this and Paisley/Logan were so off schedule🤣.

I will have port placement surgery Monday.

Then Wednesday get fitted and mapped on the radiation machines in Daytona.

We’re going to start with 5 weeks of radiation 5 days a week and 7 weeks of chemo 1 day a week on either Mondays or Tuesdays started at the same time.
Then weeks 6&7 are going to be internal radiation (look up Brachytherapy for cervix cancer if you dare). So a 4-5 hour surgeries 2 days a week for 2 weeks in Orlando. Treatment time is around what I was expecting but much more intense than I thought meaning a longer recovery than I anticipated.

I don’t have an exact start date for the radiation, my nurse navigator said it’d be within 10 days of the mapping. Bobby should be back to work Tuesday which means I have to find someone to come each day with the smaller kids and I to my radiation appointments. (About 30 minutes away, about 15 minutes long, and 30 minutes home. I’ve already asked Advents social worker and they don’t have any options really) it’s a lot. This is all a lot.

I am blessed and thankful that there’s treatment available. I am having a hard time navigating it all right now but that’s to be expected.

Please continue to share, I realize it’s a difficult time for everyone but we could still use a lot of help, people/time, and prayer.

I've been hit with the one of the toughest challenges of my life— cervical cancer—and it's turning my world upside down. After several abnormal symptoms throughout my pregnancy, I was blindsided to learn that I have advanced cervical cancer. I will need a radical hysterectomy with likelihood of chemotherapy/radiotherapy. (We will know more after the pathology is done following surgery.) This puts both he and I out of work for 6-8 weeks or more depending on my treatments.

We were already working to overcome some financial obstacles as we are recovering financially from having a baby. Things feel like they’re spiraling out of my control. We are down to 1 vehicle, our laundry washer is broken (with a family of six this truly killing me, lol) I will need a lot of help caring for my children while I’m recovering and going through treatments. I will have to stop breastfeeding and will need donor milk or formula for our baby. My husbands leave to care for us will be unpaid and our savings are exhausted. Cancer is an unpredictable thing so I anticipate more challenges along the way.

I would be forever greatful if we could offset some of our financial obligations while Bobby takes time away from his job to care for our family and tote us back and fourth to Orlando. We would be able to focus our energy on me getting better so I can continue to be super mom.

If you can’t help financially I know some cute kids that might like some attention, we can always use help cleaning up the house, playing with our toddler, picking the older kids up from school, bringing by dinner or running an errand or two.

**If you cannot donate PLEASE SHARE.** THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart as I feel like a huge burden to everyone around me but this is truly the scariest thing I’ve ever gone through in my life. 🩷**
