Me and my heroes
Friday 16th AugHello my dear friends and family. I’m reaching out to ask for your support.
I’ve created a Team called “Queen Mickey’s Bougie Battalion” and will be participating in the Wellspring Chinguacousy’s Walk on October 6th - will you join me?
I’ve included below, my personal journey created by Wellsprings, that I’d like to share with you.
If you’re interested in joining my team, please go ahead and sign up using our team name.
Michelina, a courageous member of Wellspring Chinguacousy, has faced an incredible journey of resilience and strength. Diagnosed with Leiomyosarcoma in November 2020, her battle continued with a breast cancer diagnosis in November 2022, and then the discovery of a mass in August 2023. Throughout these challenges, Michelina has found solace and support from her heroes.
"A friend recommended Wellspring to me, and I am so glad she did," Michelina shares. "I am making time for myself, and the programs and support are wonderful."
Her mom, Lina, has been a steadfast source of comfort and care. "Moms have a special way of taking care of you, even when you are an adult," Michelina says with a warm smile. "She would go to the end of the world to make you well."
Michelina's sister, Sandra, has been by her side every step of the way. "When my mind goes down the wrong path, Sandra is there. She is positive, encouraging, and pushes me forward," Michelina reflects. "And most importantly, she makes me laugh."
Beyond her immediate family, Michelina has many heroes—too many to mention—who are always there for her. "They were there at the right time and right place," she says. "A phone call when I needed to talk, breakfast/lunch/dinner dates, a day at the spa, my longtime friend from Sudbury who would come down once a month (or more often), just because, and my family in Italy who would call or text when I was down in the dumps”
Through the unwavering love and support of Lina, Sandra, and her extended circle of heroes, Michelina finds the strength to face each day with courage and hope. Their presence in her life is a testament to the power of family and the incredible bonds that help us navigate even the toughest of times.
