My name is Walaa, I’m 37 years old, and I’ve just been diagnosed with locally advanced breast cancer (Stage IIIC, ER+/PR+). The past few weeks have turned my world upside down. I never imagined I would face such a terrifying fight – not just for my life, but for my future, for my family, and for the helpless animals I care for.

I am the sole provider for my family. Every day, I carry the weight of keeping us going — emotionally, financially, and physically. Now, with cancer, I carry another burden: the cost of staying alive.

I need to undergo an urgent and aggressive treatment plan
Chemotherapy starting June 9
Hormonal therapy with Tamoxifen and Zoladex
Surgery and radiation
Total estimated cost: $20,000 USD — a mountain I cannot climb alone

I’ve already started treatment, and every step costs more than I can manage. Blood tests, scans, injections, medications — they pile up fast. I haven’t even reached the surgery or radiation phase yet, and I’m already drowning financially.

Despite the pain and fear, I still wake up every day to care for my loved ones — and for the homeless animals I feed and protect whenever I can. I may be in the fight of my life, but I haven't stopped showing up for others who depend on me.

Now, I’m humbly asking you to show up for me.

Please, if you can, donate anything — no matter how small. Every dollar helps me stay in this fight. Every share, every prayer, every kind word is a lifeline.

This is not just about survival. This is about hope. About being there for my family. About healing, and someday, giving back even more than I receive now.

Thank you from the depths of my heart for reading, supporting, and standing by me in this fight. 💖

With love and gratitude,
Walaa
