Please help Sally fight Leukemia!

Donation protected
12 Years ago, my mother-in-law was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer. She was aggressively treated with chemotherapy, surgery and radiation. Last Thursday, she was diagnosed with high-risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome, a disorder of the bone marrow and blood production, which doctors tell us was caused by the treatments that saved her life 12 years ago. If left untreated this condition leaves her at risk for infection and will lead to Acute Myeloid Leukemia. The doctors are recommending chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant. In order to help her immune system tolerate the upcoming treatments we want to send her to the CIPAG Clinic, where they specialize in non-toxic, immune boosting therapies.

She is very independent, and has done much to take care of herself, but now her options are severely limited. Since the recent diagnosis and meetings with doctors in Fall River and Boston she has moved in with our family. All of us, her close and extended family, are pitching in to help with personal expenses, and we are happy to do so.

However, the cost of the clinic stay for the six day a week natural immune boosting treatments will, unfortunately, be $10,000, and this is where we hope a Gofundme page could help us out. She is only 59 years old, and has such a great enthusiasm for and love of life we simply must try everything we can to keep her in our lives! We want her to be there when her granddaughters graduate, get married and grow into beautiful adult women. We are turning to Gofundme for help because even if many give just a little, it goes so far. Thank you for caring enough to read this. -Sarah Lee
