Life has a way of testing even the strongest among us and right now, it’s our turn to show up.

Brianne Fox has spent her life caring for others as a physician assistant, always putting patients and families first. Now, she’s in the fight of her life, battling colon cancer. After two years out of work and exhausting standard treatments, Brianne has the opportunity to take part in a promising medical trial in Virginia, but it’s not covered, and the costs are overwhelming.

Brianne is a devoted wife to Johnny, an FDNY firefighter who has spent his career running toward danger to save others. Today, he needs us to help him save the person who means everything to him. 

They are also parents to two incredible kids Justin and Kristen, who should be focused on their futures, not worrying about their mom’s fight or the financial burden it brings.

This family has given so much to others. Now it’s our turn to give back.

Any donation, big or small will go directly toward Brianne’s medical expenses and help give her a fighting chance. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this post means just as much.

Let’s come together and support Brianne, Johnny, and their family during this incredibly difficult time. ❤️

It’s been years since I last saw you guys. I didn’t know you all that well but any time I was at your house with my kids you made us feel like family. My heart goes out to you Brie and your children. Don't stop fighting and advocating for better care. You are all in my hopes and prayers.
