A Tampa Love Story
On April 28, 2022, Lucy and Jason will join with dear friends and family to renew their vows and celebrate a love that has persevered through sickness and struggle.
Lucy and Jason first met in 2013. Lucy had been working at an allergy office while perusing a graduate degree and Jason was a patient at the office. Despite several attempts to ask her out, she politely declined due to his relationship with her work. However, after she stopped working at the office, she got a random knock on her door. It was Jason. He had tracked her down and wanted to take her to lunch. They went out that day and have been together ever since.
Lucy and Jason hit it off immediately and began seriously dating. They were engaged within six months and married soon after.
Lucy’s cancer journey first began when her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer a few years ago. Because of the nature of her sister’s illness, Lucy decided to get tested for the BRCA gene. Her test came back positive and she entered a surveillance program to be monitored and to undergo a prophylactic mastectomy.
In 2019, however, Lucy found a nodule in her armpit. She immediately had it checked out but was told that it was nothing to worry about. She finally get the testing that she needed and was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. She underwent a double mastectomy and aggressive chemotherapy. This past October, the cancer spread to her bones and has now moved into her lungs. Lucy is actively receiving treatment and is fighting hard with her husband and children by her side.
We adore this beautiful couple and cannot wait to help them renew their vows. We found a kindred spirit in Lisa of Event Sisters and have been touched by her generosity and kindness in this process.
