Vanessa ’s Story

Site created on February 8, 2023

Vanessa was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer the end of January. It has been a whirlwind since then of biopsies, MRIs, tests, doctor appointments as the mass is over 6 cm and aggressive. Vanessa moved to New Mexico to be near her youngest daughter’s adoptive family and is living with a dear friend, Trish and has a whole virtual community of love and prayers. This is just a page in her story that we pray will draw others closer to God.

Journal entry by Tiffany Hollums —

Prayers for Vanessa as she had  a lumpectomy and  took surrounding lymph nodes to test to ensure they got everything.  Vanessa will recover about 4 weeks and then begin radiation for a few weeks.  Thank you all for the prayers.
