Emily Link
Donation protected
Dear Pennies & Pens,
I am seeking to raise money to help my best friend Emily Link pay medical bills and personal bills. The week before Labor Day, Emily was in a car accident.
Upon going to the hospital and having an MRI, the doctors discovered that Emily had a brain tumor. So the car accident ended up being a blessing in disguise.
Emily’s diagnosis is currently a stage two Glioma. The testing that is necessary takes several weeks to complete so we will not know the exact type of Glioma until then.
However, we do know that the lesion in Emily’s brain has infiltrated the body of her corpus callosum which is the control center for her brain. On September 29, 2016 Emily had a right frontal lobe craniotomy and resection surgery. However the surgeon was not able to remove a lot of the mass because of where it's located.
Emily is currently recovering at home and next week she will get the test results. At that time, we will find out if Emily has to go through chemo or radiation.
She will definitely have to do one of these but we won’t know which will work best until we get results from the biopsy. We are hoping that the chemo or radiation will shrink the remaining tumor enough to have another surgery to safely remove what’s left.
Having shared Emily’s diagnosis and situation, you can imagine that Emily is unable to work and will not be able to go back for several months. She already has $5000 in medical bills that her insurance won’t cover in addition to her personal bills. That’s why I am asking for your support and prayers!
Emily is a mother of two beautiful children Evander and Emiliana Porter. Additionally, she has two brothers and a younger sister as well as her parents. Until recently, Emily was an Office Manager for two dental offices in Cincinnati. Additionally, Emily recently graduated from dental assisting school and received her radiology license for the state of Ohio. Emily is also a graduate of Wyoming High School.
Emily has been my BFF since the 3rd grade and I love her like a sister. We lived down the street from each other for 20+ years before her parents relocated to Chicago. Growing up, we were always together and were practically inseparable.
When my family heard the news, my mother called Emily personally and my brother drove from Toledo to Cincinnati just to pray with her. We were all devastated when we heard the news and have been praying nonstop.
Pennies & Pens, I am asking you to pretty please with cherries on top, support this campaign! Please donate, share it on social media, or leave a comment letting Emily know you’re praying for her. We thank you in advance for your support and have a blessed day!
Peace & Blessings,
