Donna’s Stage 4 Cancer Journey—And A Grant That Opened the Door to Healing

In 2018, Donna K., a 60-year-old single parent of four from Naperville, Illinois, received a life-altering diagnosis: Stage 4 Triple Negative Breast Cancer. She endured chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation, and though she was eventually declared cancer-free, the aftereffects of treatment left her struggling physically, emotionally, and financially.

Then, in 2023, a routine mammogram revealed a recurrence. Donna was faced with a mastectomy and another round of chemotherapy, but the side effects were unbearable. Conventional treatment options left her feeling like she had nowhere to turn.

That’s when everything changed.

“I believe finding MTIH is an answered prayer for me,” Donna shared. “Being diagnosed with cancer and then experiencing the debilitating effects of the ensuing treatment, my ability to work was derailed. So this grant, so kindly given, will give me a start with MTIH that I would not have otherwise. This treatment grant is opening a gateway to an incredible healing journey.”

For patients like Donna, an MTIH Patient Grant is more than financial assistance—it is a lifeline to healing.
