PRAY for this Nebraska mom diagnozed with stage 4 breast cancer

MAHA, NE Caroline Grabenbauer wants to be a mother more than anything. After suffering four miscarriages, she thought she had been through the worst of it. That's when she was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. Doctors tell her it is incurable.

"We just need to pray for a miracle. They happen every day," Caroline said.
Married five years, Caroline and Kurt Grabenbauer have already seen more pain than most of us know in a lifetime.
"All I've ever wanted if anyone knows me is just to be a mom," she said.
In the past three years, Caroline has had four miscarriages. She had surgery to get rid of endometriosis and poly cystic ovaries and was told her body was in the best shape to finally carry a baby. She believed it was the month she got pregnant.
"That's when everything hit rock bottom," she said.
Caroline's OB Doctor found a lump. After a mammogram and biopsy, the diagnosis was breast cancer.
"We thought maybe it was stage 1, stage 2...I'm young. We've come to find out it was stage 4," she said.
Stage 4 breast cancer, at the young age of 31; Caroline's mother is a breast cancer survivor, so she has a family history. Still...

"I do not have the BRCA gene so it's kind of surprising this has happened at a young age," she said.
The cancer has spread to her sternum and is in her bones.
At this point, Caroline has made it through her first round of chemo. She's being proactive. She expects to lose her hair soon. She has already been trying on wigs to prepare.
Caroline will have to undergo a single or double mastectomy and radiation. She says she will keep fighting, despite doctors telling her it is incurable. Her husband says she is the love of his life.
"I truly believe that if anyone can beat this, it's her." said Kurt.
He plans on getting a crib-and putting it in the room they hope will one day be their baby's room.
"I'll look at the crib and realize what I'm doing this for and hopefully some day we can have that family," he said.
But for now, more chemo, surgeries, and most of all hope.
"I know this is not how the story ends for us. I know our story has a happy ending," Kurt said.
Both Caroline and Kurt say they hope by sharing their journey it will inspire others to listen to your body. She was told a few times that pain she was experiencing was nothing to be concerned about. She kept seeking answers before getting her diagnosis.
Caroline will undergo her second round of chemo on Thursday.
The love and support has been flooding in on a GoFundMe page.
Kurt and Caroline say they are simply overwhelmed to see it.
"It's her they are being amazing for. She brings that out in people, she really does," Kurt said.
