The very next day, May 2nd, we got married. It was meant to be the start of our forever together, but instead of celebrating with a honeymoon, we cancelled everything and began navigating this devastating diagnosis.</P><P>Amanda is only 42. She is one of the most caring, loving, and thoughtful people you could ever hope to meet. She has always been the one putting others first — whether it’s looking after friends, checking in on family, or simply making someone feel seen and loved. She has a heart of pure gold, and she truly makes the world better just by being in it.</P><P>While her cancer can’t be cured, I want to make sure Amanda’s time is filled with joy, comfort, and unforgettable memories. I’ve started a GoFundMe to help us focus on living, not just on fighting cancer — to make her bucket list dreams come true, to take the trips we never got to take, and to give her the quality of life she deserves.</P><P><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":backhand_index_pointing_right:">👉</span> <A class="" href="https://gofund.me/b35d5630e" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow noreferrer ugc">https://gofund.me/b35d5630e</A></P><P>Even the smallest donation would mean the world to us.
