This is for my 23 year old son and his wife.
they were married a little over two years
Ryan and Jenny
Ryan was just diagnosed with osteosarcoma
a bone cancer in his right tibia below the knee.
this is an aggressive cancer and we are not sure
whether or not it has metastasized.
if it has his prognoses is poor.
if it has not then the treatment will be:
3 months of chemo
total knee replacement
3 additional months of chemo
he is not able to work for up to a year or longer
depending on the outcomes.
they have some insurance but it may not be available to them
in the coming months.
this is something we as a family have not faced before .
I have the ability to help some but my funds are limited.
I am close to retirement and things cost so much.
for just the one day in the hospital for the biopsy
we are looking at over $7000
these kids don't have that kind of money.
with the chemo, knee replacement, and medications
it seem over whelming.
my son broke down into tears and told the hospital he couldn't afford the $7000 they were asking for and that he would just have to die of cancer.
this broke my heart.
I paid the hospital a down payment and they did the procedure
but what happens next.
we are a faith based family
Ryan and Jenny are very active in his church and loves the Lord with all his heart.
please find it in your hearts to help.
the funds will be used for medical as well as help with living expenses
your help will help to save my son
