About Me
I’m Lesley. I was diagnosed with stage 3B breast cancer in January of 2018 when my youngest was 7 months old. In April of 2020, right as the COVID-19 pandemic hit, I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) that required a bone marrow transplant. I am married to a wonderful man. I have three teenage boys who I homeschool and a toddler boy who I chase constantly. We live in the woods. Life is wonderful – even with Cancer.
