Help Luis fight Myeloma

Hi everyone , I want you to meet my loving father Luis Guallpa. In 2018 my father has been diagnosed with Myeloma which are cancerous plasma cells that weaken the bones. I was 16 at the moment and didn’t really understand anything , All I did understand was that I can lose my father at any time . My mother and I had been taking him to his radiation and chemo almost 5 days a week . It was very hard because we had to go from Newark to Hackensack on bus since we didn’t have any transportation at all. But I’m very thankful that Hackensack hospital helped him get better and also Dr.shaaban , my dad has received a cell transplant. From there my father was cancer free , but then it came back even stronger . Now my dad is suffering from deep vein thrombosis on his right leg to the point where his left leg is getting affected too. He can’t walk right or use the bathroom. They insert in him a tube through his male reproductive organ because he was having complications with his kidney. As the doctor had explain to me , everything he is suffering right now is due to Myeloma . This cancer is very aggressive when it comes back , it leave my dad weak and unable to do any activity . I made a decision to drop out of college and start working full time to help my dad and my family for the rent and his treatments. For his treatment my dad needs some medication which cost a lot , me and my family can’t afford it , and we can’t afford his new transplant neither . My father is slowing trying to get back on his feet again bu the pain he has makes him fall back down . My dad is just a strong and hard working man , and I still remember the day he said “ I did it , I’m cancer free” .I know God got us , we will get through this painful and hard situation . I taken care of my dad almost my whole life I won’t give up . I’m asking for foundations for financial support for my father and I to relieve the stress and the anxiety we all have in my household. My family and I would greatly appreciate it if you can share this page and Thankyou so much for taking your time in reading this . Blessings to you all .
