Dear friends and family, On May 25th my mom, Debbie, was diagnosed with stage 3 invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast. I’m reaching out to raise funds for her treatment, travel expenses to and from the treatment facility in Stillwater, Oklahoma, and living expenses from missed work. I greatly appreciate your support, as it will allow my mom to focus on recovery. Please consider donating to our LFEBridge campaign and sharing it with your network. Your compassion and generosity will make a significant difference for my parents. With gratitude, Izaak Sibley Update: on 8/5 she tested positive for covid, and will be unable to work until the 14th, it also pushes her treatment schedule back two weeks Update: 11/19 she tested positive for covid again, so her last chemo is pushed back another week Treatment Schedule: 6.27 - chemotherapy (3 drugs) 7.11 - chemotherapy (3 drugs) 7.25 - chemotherapy (3 drugs) (covid schedule change) 8.22 - chemotherapy (3 drugs) 9.5 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 9.12 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 9.19 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 9.26 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 10.3 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 10.10 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 10.17 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 10.24 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 10.31 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 11.7 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 11.14 - chemotherapy (1 drug) (2nd covid schedule change) 11.28 - chemotherapy (1 drug) 1.25 - surgery TBD - radiation Update 1/10/24 MRI shows no cancer (hooray!) but they will remove the lymph nodes and lump where the markers are to insure it doesn't come back.
