We are proud to present our 2024 beneficiary – Kelly Florip of Cedar, MI!
Kelly's journey began on July 9th, 2016, when she was first diagnosed with Triple Positive Breast Cancer. Her struggle was arduous, but she triumphed, ending her treatment on June 30, 2017. Although grateful for the outcome, we remained guardedly hopeful, knowing that the cancer may return someday.
Unfortunately, on Monday, August 21, 2023, Kelly's day took a distressing turn as she discovered a familiar lump on her torso. Several examinations, including an MRI, biopsy, and blood tests, confirmed the devastating news that her cancer had returned. Further complicating matters, a PET scan on October 3rd revealed a high suspicion of metastatic disease in her liver.
Due to this concerning nodule, additional testing is required before any treatment plans can be made. At present, Kelly anxiously awaits an ultrasound biopsy, hoping for conclusive results that will shed light on her condition. If the biopsy does confirm cancer, she will face the unfortunate reality of a metastatic diagnosis, necessitating a lifelong journey of treatment.
