Help JoAnne Schuster stay close to treatment.

Donation protected
Hello Family and Friends,
My wife, JoAnne Schuster, mother of 3 and grandmother of 4, has had reoccurring brain tumors in 2004 and 2011. Unfortunately, after 2 surgeries in the past, we thought we were in the clear. Last year in 2020 we got the unsettling news that it had returned and growing faster than ever. After meeting with a specialist at USC medical, they are trying a new approach at getting rid of this thing for good. They went along with surgery and removed about 95% of the tumor which left her temporarily paralyzed on her entire left side for 4 days and unable to walk for about a week after. Thankfully she is no longer paralyzed and has regained strength back enough to walk. Her next course of treatment also includes radiation and chemotherapy. This is where I ask for any help we can get. JoAnne needs Radiation treatment for 6 weeks and Chemotherapy 5 days a week for the next 5 to 6 weeks. The trouble is that we live almost 2 hours away from the hospital and would really like to stay close to the hospital in a motel/hotel. With all of JoAnne's medications and previous doctors visits and surgeries, bills are adding up. We are very hopeful that this time is the last. This will really help my wife not feel like she is being a burden and reduce the stress of not being able to afford the accommodations she needs in order to receive this treatment. She needs this treatment so that we can get rid of this tumor for good. Thank you for taking your time to read this and know that I am grateful for anything you could do to help.
