Urgent Help For Reagan Berthelot

Donation protected
We are in URGENT NEED OF HELP & prayers for my 40 year old terminally ill, displaced, homeless sister! Please read! I know it’s long but please read. My sister Reagan is terminally ill with not long to live. She’s out of state to be near her doctors. Her conditions are ones I can’t even pronounce. After a lot of thought and not wanting to, I set up this gofundme. So far, me, my mother and one good friend have kept Reagan in hotels near her doctors for weeks. She came here to stay with us but it didn’t last because there’s just no way she can’t be close to the doctors. She is in a program that’s SUPPOSED to give her free housing but due to coronavirus the office has been closed and they are saying now it may take months. We may have to find her an apartment with utilities included to save money. It’s like every step forward she’s knocked 3 steps back. And they keep telling her to wait. How do we wait when time is the one thing they tell her she doesn’t have? She’s only 40, and She has SEVERAL illnesses including colon disorders, crohn’s disease, some form of pancreatic cancer, a pancreatic clot and clot in her heart, she had gastric bypass years ago with complications and surgeries so she can no longer absorb nutrients and vitamins at all, she requires transfusions and injections weekly, and to be totally honest with everyone they gave her maybe 2 months to live. We are gonna believe in God and His report and not the doctors but- the doctors report is not good. They don’t know how she’s still here. She’s on disability but it’s barely enough to pay for her car and insurance and a storage bill cus she’s homeless- and has to have a car to get to the doctors. Most of her meds we have had to pay out of pocket and try to get reimbursement. She has about 10 different doctors. So for now we have to pay weekly to keep a hotel near her doctors. Occasionally she will have a friend let her stay one night or something but- this is coming straight out of me or my parents personal accounts which are wearing thin. They are on a fixed income. But We can’t bear for her to sleep in her car- to the point we will go broke keeping her in a comfortable bed. And we are. She’s been at a comfort inn all this week. So many people have helped Alysia (Reagan’s niece who was in a horrible accident) that we were not gonna post anything financial about Reagan but being asked to by a couple people, I’m going to. I’ll exhaust my funds before I let her sleep in a car. Reagan is a loving person who just wants to live but has accepted the fact that God may have other plans. She loves her grandchildren and family and friends. Reagan is a hard worker and she’s even talking about get a part time job but she has zero energy and now an infection in her tooth and it’s just so many things piled on top of each other it seems almost hopeless. But it’s not! God is in control no matter what. But working is unrealistic for her. Anyway, once again all we truly ask for is prayer. I just know some people are blessed enough to bless others. Hopefully even if it just ends up helping with a week of hotel bills it will ease my parents’ finances. She has her boyfriend up there but he’s sick with cancer and not able to do much but be there for support at this point. The devil is after our family bad. My dad has had major shoulder pain from a wreck that caused a bad neck injury and can’t even move sometimes. The devil just didn’t know he was coming after a praying family with a lot of support. Thank God Reagan’s niece has made progress, From not knowing if she would have major brain damage to ready for rehab in less than 3 weeks. Keep them prayers coming. It means a lot to my family and I. We are forced lately just to put our whole lives public because the prayers were more important than our pride. And I am so thankful for all of y’all. Truly. God bless all of you!
