Help with Cancer Treatment and Medical Bills

Donation protected
My name is Dana. I am 39 years old, born and raised in Cumming, GA. I was diagnosed with HER2-positive inflammatory breast cancer in November 2022. I have a husband and 2 children aged 10 and 12. Throughout my cancer journey, I have tried to continue to work as much as possible and take intermittent leave when getting treatments. I have had chemo, surgery, radiation, and more chemo. I am still having long-term complications from radiation requiring me to have multiple surgeries due to tissue damage. My last surgery was on March 12, 2024, to remove my tissue expander completely from my left side. I will be starting hyperbaric treatments soon to help with healing which will be 5 days a week for 40 visits. Of course, life and bills don't stop just because you are sick. I am not the type of person to ask anyone for help either. I try to solve my issues and not burden anyone else. Going on 3 years I have managed to help my family as much as possible with finances. But with only one person, Brendan, in the household working full time now, money is getting very tight. I have been working when I can in between surgeries. Any funds received on GoFundMe will go toward helping pay medical bills. I have posted updates along the way and I try to update my story as time passes. We are in 2025 now and I am hoping this year will be my last year having all these doctors appointments and scans and treatments.
