At the start of the new year, Kate received the life-changing diagnosis of stage II breast cancer—just as she was preparing to welcome her second child. Now, she faces an intense journey of two rounds of chemotherapy, the first while pregnant and the second following the birth of the baby, with a surgery in the Fall of 2025. Despite the challenges ahead, Kate remains strong and hopeful, focusing on both her healing and the arrival of her and Pat's baby girl in July. We invite you to support Kate and her family during this difficult time—whether through meal assistance, a visit, simply sharing words of encouragement or a donations. Your kindness and generosity will help ease the burdens of medical costs, childcare, and everyday needs so she can focus on what matters most: fighting cancer and welcoming her baby with love.
