Help For Amber
Donation protected
My daughter Amber was diagnosed with cervical cancer just over a year ago. She has not been able to work, take care of her children or the household due to the side effects of the chemo and radiation treatments has had and will have to endure. My goal is to ease the financial burden on her and her family as her treatments continue.
Amber has gone through several rounds of chemo along with radiation treatments. Five months ago her pet scan showed the tumor on her cervix was gone but they found cancer cells in her lymph nodes. She was put on another round of chemo and the latest results from that were not so good.
Amber who is only 32, now has Lymphedema and her tumor is growing again. Her doctors now want to put her on a six month regimen of very aggressive chemo(She has had all the radiation that her body can handle). She is in a lot of pain, losing weight and is having a hard time keeping food down.
Amber and her husband John have 3 children to care for: Taylor, Johnny, and their youngest Kaleb who is only 4 years old. He has to go to daycare because his mom is too sick to take care of him through the day.
Amber's household is in a very deep financial crisis right now. The mortgage payments are behind, the daycare needs to be payed, electric, heat, insurance, etc,. along with Amber's special needs (meds, therapies) and so on.
My goal is to get Amber and her family out of immediate debt and to try to supply some help with her enormous medical bills that are still climbing.
Thank you for taking the time to read my very personal and heartbreaking story. Any help you can offer is very much appreciated. And even if you can't at this time please consider sharing Amber's story.
