This is a fundraiser for Jesi Bender to help her and her family after her recent cancer diagnosis. Jesi is a 33 year old mother of 4 who will be underdoing extensive surgery at UCLA on Monday Nov 29th. There's really no ideal time to be diagnosed with cancer, but the timing for Jesi couldn't have been worse as she exhausted her state disability benefits after a bout of postpartum following her last pregnancy. The money raised will be used to help her during the next few months until she can return back to work.
Jesi's full story can be found at www.justiceforjesi.com and tells about her struggle being dismissed by her doctors and having to fight to find answers, eventually leading to her diagnosis of cancer. Jesi & kids.jpg935.44 KB
