Diagnosed with Stage 4 Fallopian Cancer, Age 37
The week before Thanksgiving 2018, Rocky (age 37), was diagnosed with Stage 3C Ovarian Cancer. After an extensive surgery that included a full hysterectomy, omentumectomy, and apendectomy, tests showed her cancer to be aggressively spreading. Having spread to the lining of the lungs and a majority of her abdomen up to her collar bone, Rocky’s cancer was re-staged as Stage 4 Fallopian Cancer.
Rocky is a single mother of an incredible daughter, Emma (age 14), and also provides a home and support for her youngest brother, Conor (age 18). They both are excelling at Blaine High School and keep busy while Rocky focuses on her fight. Rocky is undergoing a hefty chemo treatment plan, and though she’s already had a few medical bumps in the road, is very optimistic for her outcome.
If you are interested in donating to Rocky’s fight, every dollar helps ease the financial stress of added medical bills and insurance premiums for additional treatments. If you’d rather help by whipping up a delicious meal for the family, please check out the Meal Train and sign-up at your convenience. These meals are dropped in a cooler provided at her front door and make a huge difference.
Every DOLLAR, every MEAL, and every POSITIVE NOTE makes a difference to Rocky and her family!
I cannot thank everyone enough for the outpouring of support since learning of these nasty cancer cooties. All jokes aside, I know how serious of a fight I’m in for. But, no matter how uphill this is, I have every reason in the world to win this fight and I will with the army of support I have at my back. The chemo will most certainly take my hair, but in exchange for my health and more years with my family, I’ll gladly make the trade.
Thank you all, so very, very much, for anything you’ve done for or given to us already, it all means the world to my family. Please keep VantagePoint in mind when your business needs work, the team is ready to go and I’m still here working at various levels with everyone. I can’t wait to be back at life 100%- It’s coming soon, just wait and see. Thank you, thank you, everyone. This has already been a very humbling, and hope-filled, experience!
