Crystal's Journey
My dear sweet sister in law, Crystal is in desparate need of help. She has recently been having severe breathing trouble and about a month ago, her doctors discovered a 4.8 cm right hiler mass in her lung which wraps around her sternum. A normal SPO2 (normal blood oxygen saturation )should be between 94% and 99%, and hers is only 84%. On Wednesday, June 7th, they performed a biopsy which we are currently awaiting the results. The total cost for the one biopsy is over $40,000. In the interem, the doctors have prescribed numerous "band-aids" to help relieve her symptoms including an inhaler which is nearly $400. Unfortunately, even with paying for for these treatments, her symptoms have not improved. There are many more tests and treatments to come. Crystal is currently unable to work due to shortness of breath. Even normal day to day chores like doing laundry takes her breath away. Between tests, treatments, co-pays, plus the loss of work, any donation could make a huge difference. Please help if you can and please keep Crystal and Joey in your prayers.
