Jill in Monterey, California
This campaign has wrapped up. Thank you to everyone who participated.
Meet Jill, a wife and mother of two who has shown incredible resilience throughout her cancer journey. Eight years ago, Jill received the life-altering diagnosis and continues to undergo treatment with unwavering strength. Despite the ongoing challenges, her love for her daughters, aged 13 and 10, brings her immeasurable joy and a sense of purpose.
Jill's strength was further tested when her husband experienced a brain aneurysm. In the face of her own health battles, Jill became a pillar of support for him, displaying extraordinary love and tenacity.
The family's relocation from Southern California to Monterey during the pandemic added yet another layer to their struggles. Moving is never easy, but the timing of their move meant they found themselves isolated in an unfamiliar place. The usual avenues for building friendships and a support network were suddenly out of reach. Jill and her family have since experienced deep loneliness, yearning for the vibrant community connections they once had and struggling to find footing in this new environment.
In the face of such adversity, Jill's enduring spirit has been a source of inspiration, making it all the more important that we take this moment to celebrate and honor her remarkable journey. By sending her a heartfelt card, we can collectively demonstrate our appreciation and support, allowing her to feel the warmth of a community that acknowledges her journey.
Not only will your card bring a smile to Jill's face, but a portion of the purchase price will also be donated to the American Cancer Society in her name.
