Ramona is living with advanced breast cancer, and she&#39;s made the deeply personal decision to enter hospice care rather than continue aggressive treatments. For her, this choice is about quality of life over quantity. The treatments available to Ramona would be painful and would not offer a meaningful chance of recovery. Instead, she is choosing to spend her remaining time in comfort, surrounded by love, and with as much peace as possible. As Ramona faces the reality that her time is limited, she is also trying to relieve the financial burden on her family. Pink Warrior Angels is raising funds to help cover her cremation and final expenses so that her loved ones are not left with this weight during an already difficult time. If you feel moved to support Ramona, we are deeply grateful. Your kindness allows her to focus on what matters most right now&mdash;time, love, and peace.
