Created July 14th, 2021

 

Officer Shelia Cain has been a Police Officer for the Davie Police Department since February 19, 2002. Officer Cain has also been a member of the Davie Police Departments Honor Guard for 14 years.  In April 2021 of this year, she was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. On May 6, She underwent a bilateral mastectomy and had reconstructive surgery. During the surgery, they discovered that the cancer had spread.

Officer Cain is preparing to complete 15 rounds of directed radiation in an attempt to stop this in it's tracks. The radiation treatment will require her to have treatments every day for 15 days straight. The repeated trips to the hospital and days missed from work while having treatment has created a financial hardship for her. Please consider a donation to help her with piece of mind while she undergoes treatment.
