"HELP" DEONTEE Win this Fight...Age 24 - CANCER

"My name is DEONTEE HARRIS, I’m 24 years old."

"I Am MY Back Bone and My ONLY Support System. Even as strong as I am and have been, There's only so much I can do. " Deontee

*As of 2/06/2024 Deontee's Cancer has spread - STAGE II

After Visiting My Friend (PJ) (who I grew up with in El Paso, TX) at Prairie View A& M University (Houston), I became Inspired and Motivated to Change my Life. So.. that meant that I had to Change my Environment.

I saved and saved and saved my money!

7 MONTHS AGO, I Stepped Out on "FAITH" --- INDEPENDENTLY MOVED TO HOUSTON.

JULY 2023, I Packed up all my things ---- "PAID UP" a Lease for "6" Months, and was off to a FRESH Start.

My hopes of attending "Texas Southern University" to Continue my Education, add to My Associate's Degree in Music, and to become The Best Product of "ME" were High!

Within the 1st Week, I started Working at the Famous Breakfast Klub Restaurant, located at Bush International Airport. My plans were to save for a car so that I could commute to school, when I enrolled.

UNFORTUNATELY,

I Received News that NO one wants to hear....... Especially at 24 years old!

CANCER

Diagnosis: (Stage 1 - Hodgkins Lymphoma - Chest MASS).

I was Too Sick to continue working and have been unable to return. I was Terminated due to the company deciding "Not to Approve my Medical Leave"

I have NO Immediate Family locally to support me in this unexpected crisis. I'm currently Struggling to provide basic necessities for myself (rent, groceries, phone service, hygiene products, transportation to receive medical treatment, and etc.).

I have not been able to work since November 29, 2023.

I Have NO Money for RENT

I have NO Money for FOOD

I Have NO Money for TRANSPORTATION

I Have NO Money for MEDICATION

I Have NO Money for my PHONE

I Have NO Money for HYGENE PRODUCTS

I Have NO Money for PERSONAL NECESSITIES

(My insurance from my job was surposed to kick in January --but of course I HAVEN'T been able to work since November so that went down the drain!)

** After multiple calls, Mrs. Arnett (friend~PJ's Mom) had to take off work to address my Hospital Staff / Social Workers / for the Gold Card for Medical Care, because they were not providing me with any service that was needed, giving me the run-around! - -- If Anyone knows Mrs. Arnett ---- She "STANDS on BUSINESS" ...

AFTER *3 Months of a Constant Battle to get Approved from Numerous Programs to Cover Treatment Costs.

**I just Recieved it a week ago.

She has also Applied for other Benefits, although I Have Not Received Anything Yet.

**I Will Finally HAVE MY FIRST CHEMO THIS WEEK ! (February 1st)

AFTER BEING DIAGNOSED way back in NOVEMBER 2023!!!!

** PLEASE PRAY FOR ME that IT hasn't Spread! ***

Mrs. Arnett Shared my situation with Her Friend, Marie Freelon, who lives in Houston.

When her time permits --- She has taken me to Doctor's Visits --- and also communicates with my Medical Team regarding my care.

I have cried, and stressed...

Only 1 Night Though ~ Tye Tribett

I know that God has Got ~~~~~~~All of ME!

From Lisa Arnett:

The Bottom Line ... It has Always Taken a Village!

DEONTEE is an Extremely Independent, kind, Humble, and Intelligent young man.

"IN THIS CAMP" Asking for Help is ALWAYS a DIFFICULT thing to do.

24 years of Age — Cancer —- NO.... all of ETC!

I Know that Your Heart Strings have been pulled in the Right Direction.

Haven't THEY?

Thank you to everyone that is able to donate

and to all who are not in the position to do so..... I would greatly appreciate Prayers.

To all experiencing similar struggles, stay strong, the storm shall pass!
