Help Kathy Fight Cancer

Donation protected

This is Kathy and her beautiful daughter Marilyn. Kathy has Hodgkin's Lymphoma, a cancer of the blood . In the Summer of 2010 Kathy was diagnosed with lymphoma, she did 6 long months of chemo and in February of 2011 she was in remission. In July of 2012 her scans showed no signs of cancer.
You can imagine her shock and fear when she discovered a lump this August. She was just diagnosed with a relapse of lymphoma. Every relapse is considered stage 4 cancer and requires extremely powerful chemotherapy treatments.
In Kathy's first battle with cancer, she inspired everyone who knew her with her strength and her drive. She has always been a phenomenal mother and you could see that even through her cancer, Marilyn remained her first priority. She HAD to beat cancer, for her daughter. There was no choice involved. She'll do it again with your help.
This website is dedicated to help Kathy beat cancer again. Kathy has a government job that does not pay into State disability and she also owns her own healing business on the side. She is unable to work at either job during her treatments and won't be receiving a paycheck or temporary disability. She is hoping for long term disability which will take about 5 months if accepted (fingers crossed).

By donating, you're helping to relieve the pressure and worry of her bills. Kathy shouldn't have to move out her home and uproot Marilyn from her school. She should be free to focus on fighting cancer and recover in the comfort of her own home, with her daughter by her side. Every donation will go to paying for food, rent and bills while Kathy undergoes very difficult chemo therapy treatments. Make a difference in both of their lives and let's beat cancer...FOR GOOD!
