Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,
Imagine facing one of life’s most terrifying battles—stage three breast cancer—while far from the comfort of home and the embrace of loved ones. That’s the reality for Stephanie King, the mother of two of my precious grandchildren. She was living and working in Bend, Oregon, when a routine check-up turned her world upside down. Diagnosed with aggressive stage three breast cancer.
As a single mom navigating this nightmare and being hundreds of miles away in Oregon means no family nearby to cook meals, drive her to treatments, or simply hold her hand during the tough days. Her children miss her terribly. That’s why we’re reaching out for your help. Our goal is to raise $7,500 to bring Stephanie home to Utah, where she can heal surrounded by the love and support of her family.
These funds will cover essential relocation costs, including moving her belongings, housing in Utah, and any immediate medical transition needs to ensure her treatments continue seamlessly. Every dollar will go directly toward getting her back to a place of stability and strength, allowing her to focus on recovery rather than isolation.
Your generous donation—no matter the size—will make a real difference in Stephanie’s journey and are tax free. If you can’t contribute financially, sharing this campaign would mean the world to us. Together, we can help her turn the page on this chapter and fight cancer with the unbreakable support of family. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your compassion, prayers, and support.
Let’s bring Stephanie King home where she belongs.
With gratitude
Valerie Tovey, Grandmother to CJ King & Hailey King
