G.I.S.T. For Medical Bills

Donation protected

My name is Terry Byrd. I portray a creepy horror host named Riggor Mortiss. In mid-2014, I was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor called a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (G.I.S.T.). This thing was as big as my head. I underwent surgery to have it removed, to no avail. It had attached itself to various organs and blood vessels. It was literally bleeding me dry.... feeding on my blood. I had a cess drainage hose and ostomy bag attached to me for a year and a half. Regular C.T. scans, labs and check up visits have caused bills to add up. Several thousands of dollars later, I'm unable to get them all paid, and collectors are calling for payment. I've tried to do a second job, but my energy level has dropped off from what it was. I'm the only one in the household that works. I work overtime at my current job when needed or when I can, but this tumor seems to have left me quite weak and vulnerable. Any "horror host" like Nyte Angel and I can tell you...we don't get any money from hosting, especially if they manage themselves and do all the things necessary to bring you our show. I am also on an expensive chemo drug called Gleevec, which insurance (thank goodness) is paying for.
I REALLY need some help. ANYTHING you do will be greatly appreciated.
