laurie's love mission

is to Connect, Empower and Inspire every member who joins the Laurie’s Love app so that no Warrior goes through their cancer journey alone. Laurie’s Love is a forum to speak privately and candidly with someone who understands the specific path that you are on, the precise treatments you are enduring and/or have endured, and the aftereffects of those treatments. 

This app is designed to be a common place to lift each other up during the difficult days and to provide inspiration on the momentous days that should be celebrated. It is a community to share personal stories to help empower one another as you work towards a victory over your cancer while keeping the faith that a cure is on the horizon. 

in the press

“Great Day Live talks with the creator of Laurie’s Love App, a place where those with cancer can connect with others fighting the same type of disease.”
