Cancer treatment for a young mother of 3 kids

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Sandzhar Yusupov I am fundraising for a family of my military friend who is honorably severed in US Army. Unfortunately his wife Jenny was diagnosed with aggressive form of leukemia shortly after giving birth to her youngest child. With a nursing background, she first blew off the bruising as anemia and continued eating as healthy as possible, increasing her iron intake. However, things continued to worsen with pain, weakness and severe bruising she went to her doctor and was told that it was not anemia but advanced leukemia, 7 months after giving birth, and alone with the children while Gregorio was away in the Army. After traveling across the country to receive a potentially life-saving bone marrow transplant at one of the top cancer centers in the country, she received more devastating news.... the cancer was back and more aggressive than before with a secondary cancer of Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. She has been fighting for her life, trying multiple chemotherapy treatments, radiation as well as natural therapies at several doctors in multiple states and even outside the country. As a family of 5, these treatments have drained their savings, and with mounting medical bills and children that need to be tended to, they are overwhelmed and drowning in stress. Gregorio is only able to work a few days a week as the children need to be taken back and forth to school, and he takes care for his sick wife as she is confined to bed and wheelchair. Hospice has been managing pain, and she uses oxygen to help her breathe as the metastasis to her rib cage causes excruciating pain. As we all know there are many negative side effects that come along with chemotherapy, one of hers specifically, was a stroke which required a heart surgery and to date she continues to have left side weakness and nerve damage. Gregorio works as hard as he possibly can, and Jenny somehow maintains a positive attitude despite all they are facing so they can be the best parents possible to their children. They have unwavering faith in the face of cancer. Multiple life expectancy dates have been surpassed due to their very strong faith in God. This family tried very hard to do it on their own but unfortunately right now they need help. Getting to and from work and school each day, basic utilities, groceries for 5 with 2 of the children having food allergies, basic needs of the children, and medical costs all mount very quickly. Multiple of her organs are damaged, and they are clinging on to hope for a miracle. Besides the basic necessities they need funds to go for a treatment to Mexico and have to cover all expenses. I completely understand all of us have our own problems, but if you can help this family they will be very grateful! Every lit bit helps!
