Assisting a single Mom through Cancer Treatment
Donation protected
My name is Tess. I am a single Mom of 3 wonderful children who lives in Western NC in an area called Marshall, that was deeply impacted by flooding from the hurricane. I unfortunately am currently in the hospital and have been for 6 day's now. I have been given 6 bag's of donor blood and plasma and diagnosed with a pretty aggressive cancer. A 3cm tumor was located and we are currently trying to figure out a plan moving forward which no matter what will include radiation and chemo as opposed to surgery. I am the sole income for my family and my income was already greatly cut due to losing a lot of my properties during the flooding. I was barely scraping by because I was out of work for a month + and the income I did have was relying mainly on a couple of properties. I own my own cleaning service which I solely operate by myself. I was sick for 4 day's before I went to the hospital so I undoubtedly am behind on everything. It's Christmas time and before I start any kind of treatment my wish is to go home and have a normal Christmas with my kid's if that's possible. I will no doubt continue to fall behind as working isn't really a option for me right now. I love work. I love my clients and I love my kid's. I am scared. I've never asked for help and am proud to do thing's on my own, but I also don't want to work and put my health more at risk. I want to be around for my kid's. If you are so inclined to donate all proceeds will go to bill's and to provide for my family. I thank you so much!! If you can't donate PLEASE say a prayer and send some healing my way. I am strong. I am positive and I will fight and follow whatever plan my doctor's come up with. I do have another MRI scheduled today and hope to be released soon, but that's not a guarantee as we're having a hard time stopping the bleeding and regulating my blood pressure and level's. I will update here as much as possible. If you would like to donate outside of here I do have..
