Hi, I’m Tasha.
I’m a mom of three boys, and honestly that’s the most important thing I could ever tell you about myself. Everything I do, every decision I make, every day I get up and push through — it’s for them.
I’ve spent most of my adult life bartending. I’ve gone to beauty school. I love being outdoors — fishing, hunting, just being out in nature where everything feels simple and right. I’m not someone who sits still well, and I’ve always been the one holding things together, making sure everyone around me is taken care of. That’s just who I am. I’ve been the provider for as long as I can remember, and I’ve worn that with pride.
So when I got diagnosed with breast cancer a few months ago, it didn’t just scare me — it shook something in me that I didn’t even know could be shaken. The first thing I thought about was my boys. Not the diagnosis, not the doctors — just their faces.
Once the shock settled, I started thinking about what came next. And the more I looked into chemo and radiation, the more something in me just said no. It wasn’t fear — it was a gut feeling that there had to be another way. I’ve always trusted my gut, and I wasn’t about to stop now.
So I started researching, and I found a treatment center in Mexico that takes a completely natural, non-invasive approach to treating cancer. No harsh chemicals. No tearing your body apart to try to save it. For the first time since my diagnosis, I felt real hope. Like I could finally breathe again.
The hard part is that we just can’t afford to get there on our own right now. The travel and the treatments are out of reach for us, and that is a tough thing to admit — especially for someone like me who has always figured it out somehow.
Asking for help is not in my nature. I’d rather be the one giving it. But I love my boys more than I’m too proud to ask, so here I am.
If something moves you to donate, we are truly so grateful. And if you can’t, just sharing this means the world. You never know whose heart it might reach.
Thank you so much for reading. 🤍
