HelpNancy With Medical Expenses

Donation protected

I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer on 7/26/16. In the past two months I had several doctor appointments, tests, blood transfusions and have had one surgery already. I will need to undergo another surgery for hysterectomy and treatment that we now of at this time. These past couple of months  I have been suffering from dizziness,exhaustion and lightheadedness.. I felt it would be best to take a medical leave of absence, from my job. With this leave of absence, comes a lot of financial hardships. Medical bills are already starting to pile up and any donation would help to alleviate this stress.  This also leaves my husband to shoulder the living and medical expenses. Which I dont want to cause him more stress, do to his heart condition. Are parents and family has helped us alot and we are grateful for them. My husband and I dont like to ask for help. We are people when someone needs help we are there for them, it's hard for us to ask for help. Yeah with a heavy heart we are asking for help and hopefully one day we will be in the position where we can pay it forward and give to others and make a difference in someone else's life. No amount is to small.
 We would really appreciate your help!

MY STORY
I'm 36 yrs old have been married for 17 yrs and I have 3 children Melady 17, Desere 14, and Logan 6 yrs old.
When this first started I was bleeding alot with blood clots for 6 weeks, I want to see my doctor in June he said that it's normal to have that do to that I'm over weight. I was so mad. He did a Pap smear and gave me hormone shot. 3 days after that my bleeding stoped, test came back normal. I still felt that something was wrong. 3 weeks later again started my period was havey with blood clot on the 3rd week in and still not stoping. I started to have severe stomach pains I called my doctor left messages all day long and never received a call back so end up going to the emergency room. I did not want to go do to we had no health insurance and I also want to the emergency room in June which this guy doctor said they cant do much for me and to see my OBGYN. Luckily I had a new doctor that started there. She order blood test, CAT scan and ultrasound. Coming back that my blood count is to low and gave me blood transfusion. Also she found a mass with the ultrasound and my uterus is enlarged the size of as if I was 4 or 5 months pregnant advise to get hysterectomy and to see my OBGYN. And she was going to call him to make sure he knows what happen he wanted to see me the next day. So again  want to see him first thing he said to me was again that this is happening do to I'm over weight he exam me and said that he was not able to see clearly the ultrasound and wants to rerun test, that's when I had enough and told him what the emergency doctor advise me. So he order a D and C surgery 3 days later. Which I also lost alot blood end up staying over night at the hospital to get more blood transfusion. Thats when he found out I have endometrial cancer. Which again still did not have medical insurance. Are insurance was not going to start until 2 more weeks. So now we have those bills that are coming in that need to be paid on top of that any new once. For doctor appointment, surgery, hospital stays and treatment. The specialist that I will be seeing is in Edinburg,TX.

There is a long road ahead but I am strong and this cancer will be beat!!
