Krista Tacderas — @loving.my.scars — is of the bravest and strongest of us all. At 29, she was diagnosed with invasive lobular carcinoma triple negative breast cancer, with a brca1 gene mutation, the very week the world shut down from a global pandemic while only four months removed from resigning from her nursing position to be a stay at mom with her 1 year old daughter.

We are so honored to award a love bomb to miss Sadie Lackey (@lackeysadie on Instagram), who is kicking Stage 4 Classic Hodgkin lymphoma, nodular sclerosis subtype, where it counts.

“Cancer has assaulted my mental health, rearranged my dreams, and paused my ambition. Mostly because... I'm just freaking tired,” Sadie shared. “And, dang it, The Turnpike Troubadours are coming to town, and I can't go. Because I have cancer.”

Amber Cartwright is a 36 year old mom of two who is facing off with stage 4 metastatic colon rectal cancer. With her love bomb she plans to take her family to a cabin on the lake to make all the memories.

Kinsey Gaylor is a 38 year old mom of two who is going toe-to-toe with triple negative breast cancer. She’s hopeful, with the help of a love bomb, she can do something special for and with her kids. Maybe a special birthstone piece for her girl.
