Heart • Lungs • Liver • Ovaries
Hi friends,
I never imagined I’d be writing something like this. Recently, I suffered a silent heart attack—a moment that shook me to my core. As I continue to recover from that, more difficult news followed.
I had a Liver CT, and while there was a little good news—my liver has made some small progression—doctors also discovered a rapidly growing 10 cm tumor on my ovary. It’s highly suspicious for a rare cancer called immature germ cell teratoma, and I’ll be meeting with a gynecologic oncology specialist very soon to determine next steps.
Right now, my health is fragile and uncertain, and I’m facing an overwhelming storm of medical expenses, treatment planning, and emotional stress. Between heart care, possible cancer treatment, and monitoring my liver disease, I am fighting harder than I ever have in my life—and I can’t do it alone.
I’m asking for your help—whether through donations, prayers, or simply sharing my story. Every dollar goes toward:
• Medical bills and specialist visits
• Scans, labs, and procedures
• Cardiac medications and treatments
• Possible surgery and/or chemo
• Basic living costs while I am unable to work
This is the most vulnerable I’ve ever been, but I believe in the strength of community. If you’re able, please consider supporting me in this fight.
Thank you for being here. Thank you for caring. With all my heart, – Ilea❤️
