MESSAGE FROM FLAW'S FOUNDER/DIRECTOR
Having served in the military for 27 years, I dedicated much of my life to supporting others. But when I was diagnosed with Stage IV Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) in 2020, my focus and aspirations took on new meaning. I made the difficult decision to medically retire, allowing me to concentrate fully on my health, my family, and helping others facing cancer.
Motivated by the firsthand impact of this journey, I established FLAW with the mission to empower cancer survivors not just to endure but to thrive. My hope and prayer is that FLAW’s reach will one day extend far beyond St. Bernard and NOLA, touching lives everywhere. With your support, we can make this vision a reality, providing vital resources and support to those in need. Thank you so much for joining us in this fight!!
