Team Jana

My Girlfriend has Cancer for the second time. We need a cure! Donate Now!

My name is Sean Pawelec my girlfriend Jana Piccola is currently dealing with her second battle with cancer. Jana is a Senior in the School of Communications at Quinnipiac University. At the beginning of winter recess Jana was diagnosed with Leukemia and was physically unable to attend Quinnipiac in the spring but is finishing through independent studies. Jana is an A student and consistently on the Dean's List. Jana has already had three internships since the beginning of college. Jana interned at the ABC affiliate in New Haven and following this internship she was able to be placed in an intern position at the ABC offices in Manhattan. In the fall semester of this year Jana interned for the Rachel Ray show in Manhattan. While commuting to Manhattan from Quinnipiac twice a week Jana was able to maintain a full course load and still be place on the Dean's List. Jana is not just an outstanding student, she truly is an outstanding person. Jana is a true hero for many reasons one being that this is her second battle with cancer. When Jana was a Junior in High School she also was diagnosed with a form of cancer called Soft Tissue Cell Sarcoma and was able to finish high school on time with outstanding grades. Jana is amazing for all that she has overcome but if there was a cure she would never have had to gone through this nightmare twice. Donate now and we will be closer to the cure.

Jana and pug and best friend Lulu
