Help me fight Sarcoma

Donation protected
The battle began November 26 2018... On November 6 2018 I noticed a small lump in my groin, it was pea sized, by that night it was walnut sized, the next afternoon it was egg size. I went to urgent care thinking it was a hernia. They sent me to the ER. After a CT scan and more testing the doctor said it appeared to be a malignant mass and referred me to a surgeon. I saw him on the 9th and he did a biopsy. The result came back on the 12th, Atypical Spindle Cell Myxoid lesion, cancer. I named my tumor Fred and he must be evicted. He said they could not treat me as it was rare and would need aggressive surgery. He referred me to Siteman Cancer Center in St Louis. I am asking for any help I can get. My only vehicle is a 21 year old truck that I am blessed to have but it gets poor gas mileage and is not running correctly right now, I will most likely be traveling 270 miles round trip 5 days a week for months and it will cost 55.00 a day. I may be able to use short term RV parking for the travel trailer I live in to help offset fuel costs but I am not sure my truck will hold up to towing it right now. I am in no shape physically or financially to repair it. I had a successful campaign 2 years ago to get my truck and trailer due to other health issues. My income is 1249.00 per month. I may not be able to afford to get to treatments. I am insured but I will need help with medical bills and other expenses during this time.  If you read this far and can help please do. I encourage sharing as well. I can provide proof of my condition.  Any funds raised will be used for these issues and these issues only.  Thank You, John
