Young with advanced breast cancer
Donation protected
My name is Lady Mbungu, however this isn't about me but about my young sister who is only 27 years old and diagnosted with very advance breast cancer :( without treatment my sister only has few months to live. before I continue let me copy and paste what she wrote on her FB:
I'm sharing my symptoms in hopes someone will detect their cancer sooner than I did. On Aug 28 went to an urgent care facility complaining about a small rectangular lump on my right breast. Doctors told me they believed it was an infection, couldn't be breast cancer because I'm young plus I don't have family history... So they referred me to a gynecologist ... She put me on antibiotic for one week, well that didn't work, so she suggested an other ultrasound in the breast even though the hospital did one already. So I went in for that and thank goodness the nurse didn't feel it was right, so called a doctor in the room! He seemed very concerned about the lump which at this point was about a golf ball size. He performed an immediate mammogram then told me they'll send the results to my doctor... Long story short, on the 13th of October and got the forever life changing news about my cancer. Today November the 4th I started my treatment... I'm just so beyond grateful to have everyone who's on my team through this rough battle that I will come out victorious. So this is her short story of the very aggressive breast cancer that happened so fast. We didn't even want to create a go fund me in the first place. We were going to do it on our own! However her insurance do not cover the natural Doctor she will start going to in Arizona. She will receive the best treatment there and this is why we need your help. Life is full of surprises and we just never know what tomorrow holds. Thank You and may God bless :)
