Ami’s Cancer Journey

Early June, our world was flipped upside down…

Ami was diagnosed with aggressive Ovarian Cancer.

Her treatment Plan

She is being seen by an amazing team at UTSW, headed by expert Dr. Jayanthi Lea.

She has completed two of six rounds of chemotherapy and has had a couple of hospital stays. Once her first phase (six rounds) of chemotherapy is finished, she will have de-bulking surgery, then on to six more rounds of chemotherapy. The treatment plan is subject to change depending on response.

Following her second round of chemo, she experienced symptoms that were beyond expectation, so we visited the Acute Care at the Cancer Center. She was immediately sent to the ER for a heart attack and stayed in the ICU for several days. We are so relieved she is back in the comfort of her home and feeling much better.

While the cancer and cardiac diagnoses are complex, one thing is simple: we’re in the fight. She finds solace and comfort in the generous support of family and friends (AKA familea).

However, the reality is that medical bills have started knocking on the door, and we would be so appreciative of any financial help. Visit GoFundMe.

We give gratitude to her medical and care teams; they have been so kind, knowledgeable, and caring.

Thank you so much for your support!
