Local mother battles through another surgery following tumor removal

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - 27-year-old Jasmin Williams was first diagnosed with a cancerous tumor on her pancreas, however things soon became even more complicated.

After having surgery, there was a spike in Williams' white blood cell count, and a scan revealed a leak in her stomach.

Now, she is back in Phoenix for another surgery for the internal bleeding.

"It's kind of taken a tole on Jasmin, she used to be you know a happy outgoing girl, and she's not as happy anymore, she's in pain, you know the outcome of what’s going on is bleak," said Jasmin's aunt Michelle Gomez.

Amanda Johnson, a family friend, shares how much they value the community's help.

"Everything that the community has done, or is willing to do to help, I just know that they're so appreciative that they don't even know how to take the help, but I believe, in my heart, that at this point in time they really need it," says Johnson.
