Home: Welcome

Back in March of 2020 Cass started to have pain in her pelvic area.  Her uterus was rapidly growing resulting in a hysterectomy in July of 2020.  Her uterus at the time of surgery had grown 9x larger than the normal size. Pathology reviewed and returned results with her mass as benign.  Within 6 months she was having recurrent pain in her pelvic region and testing began.  After several different tests over the next few weeks and the finding of lesions they scheduled the MRI in late May.  MRI results showed 2 solid masses in June of 2021 and a biopsy was scheduled.   Within a couple of weeks and results reviewed by St. Charles and OHSU, on Friday June 25th Cassidy was diagnosed with Stage 4 Leiomyosarcoma (LMS), a very rare and aggressive cancer. Updates will be posted along with ways you can help when it is needed.  Until then, we ask for your thoughts, prayers or whatever your custom is for her.  There is one thing we do know, Cass will not fight alone!!
