There is no one in this world that has supported me more than my sister, not only personally but professionally. My business would not exist in the capacity it does if it were not for all her help on her days off from her full-time job, especially our SUP Kids camps and classes which began with her as an instructor.
She has supported EVERY community event that Urban Ocean has put on over the years and now I am asking for your help to support the strongest woman I know.
Colleen was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC)-the most aggressive type of breast cancer 2 months ago and began treatment immediately.
This aggressive cancer affects 10-15% of women with Breast Cancer under the age of 40. At the end of December, I learned the devastating diagnosis had metastasized to her bones, and the immunotherapy treatment (Keytruda) she needs, is not covered in Canada or by her insurance benefits. This treatment alone will cost over $100000 this year.
I will do everything possible to make this difficult time easier for her. I have set up a donation link on Urban Ocean's shop site
and will be absorbing the processing fees to ensure Colleen gets 100% of the funds donated. She has done so much for our community, any support you can offer is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Harmony
