Help Melissa beat cancer!

Hey everyone,
2022 was a year of battles, but one of the biggest battles has been the one my best friend Melissa has been going through. She is one of the strongest most loving people I have met who will have her friends and families back like no other.
For about 6 months last year, Melissa had a cough that doctors couldn’t explain, after x-rays, CT scans and other tests ran, they found that a Melissa had what looked like tumors on her lungs and the majority of her chest area.
She has undergone chemotherapy for 6 months and went into remission right before Christmas. Everything was thought to be okay, her hair is growing back, she’s able to run around with her dogs and hang out with her friends.
Last week she had surgery to remove part of the tumors that were left. Not even a week later, we get news that her cancer is back and this time its Classical Hodgkins Lymphoma.
Now Melissa has to go through chemo yet again and on top of that, she needs a stem cell transplant.
As we all know, the costs of these treatments aren’t cheap and although she has health insurance the bills are piling up. Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you for taking the time to read this and share her story.
