Cancer is deeply personal to me. Having watched multiple people I love fight—and tragically, some lose—their battle with cancer, I have seen firsthand how devastating a diagnosis can be, not just physically, but emotionally and financially for the entire family.
That is why I am participating in the 2026 Dempsey Challenge to raise funds for the Dempsey Center.
Founded by actor Patrick Dempsey, the Dempsey Center provides invaluable, high-quality care to people impacted by cancer. They help ease the physical, emotional, social, and functional side effects of a diagnosis at every stage of the journey. Most importantly, every service they provide is given at absolutely no cost to patients, survivors, care partners, and their families.
Having a support system like the Dempsey Center makes a world of difference when navigating a diagnosis. By donating to my page, you are directly funding no-cost counseling, integrative therapies, nutrition education, and support groups for families who need them most.
How you can help:
Thank you so much for your generosity, your love, and for joining me in making life better for those impacted by cancer!
