Stem cell transplant fund
MY name is Jessica Girardo and my husband is John Ham.
We are both disabled with major medical issues. I have systemic lupus and scleroderma plus several other medical complications that the diseases have caused;Johnn has bipolar disorder, thyroid disease and early onset dementia. Due to this we struggle with costs like gas, groceries, medical copays, etc unless we find help. We are both unable to work due to each being disabled , especially (since me restarting chemo on and off constantly) I am not supposed to be out in public much.
I struggle with systemic lupus and scleroderma which I was diagnosed with at age 12. First itwass just lupus and then several other diagnosis' were added until I'm given the term Mixed connective tissue disorder. This disease is scary, painful, debilitating, and cruel. If you are willing and able to help us we would be so very grateful.
As of now we are desperately trying to raise funds for Me to get a stem cell transplant. My disease has unfortunately attacked my lungs, digestive system and pancreas and this treatment could save my life. It is highly expensive though and unlikely that I would ever save that amount in time. We have several different options that range from $10,000 up to $200,000. We're still seeking information from one doctor in California before we finalize our decision.Any help is greatly appreciated and we're so thankful for the teams of people that have been there for us. We love you all.
Please continue prayers!
