Claudia Encinas CML Fundraiser

Donation protected
I was diagnosed with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) about a month ago. As you can imagine the past few weeks have been pretty crazy. I had to wait a while to start my treatment, that so far consists of the daily intake of two types of pills-one for chemo, to lower my white blood cell count, and another pill that targets my specific condition. I also underwent the first of several bone marrow biopsies last week. These biopsies, doctor appointments, not to mention the medicine are all extremely expensive. Even though my family is incredible and are helping me this, it obviously came as a surprise to all of us. Even with insurance the treatment is still very expensive. That being said, I've decided to start this fundraiser to help finance my treatment and to give some relief to my family and myself, as far as money goes, during these tough times. If you want to know more about my condition or just want to keep up with me and how I'm doing, I post regular updates on my blog with more detailed information about my doctor's appointments, test results, etc.

Hace aproximadamente un mes, fui diagnosticada con Leucemia Mielógena Crónica. (o CML, por sus siglas en ingles) Como podrán imaginar las últimas semanas han sido de mucha locura. Tuve que esperar un tiempo para comenzar mi tratamiento, el cual hasta el momento consiste de unas pastillas de quimoterapia, además de otras que son diseñadas para trabajar en mi enfermedad especificamente. La semana pasada me hicieron la primera de varias biopsias de médula osea, para detectar la fase de la enfermedad. Tanto las biopsias, citas con el especialista, así como los medicamentos, son extramadamente costosos. Todo esto nos ha tomado de sorpresa, e incluso con la ayuda de mi familia y teniendo seguro médico, los gastos para financiar mi tratamiento van a ser altísimos. Es por esta razón que he decidido comenzar a recaudar fondos a traves de donaciones, para de esta forma proporcionar algún tipo de alivio económico a mi familia, mientras atravesamos estos difíciles momentos. Si ustedes quieren conocer mas sobre mi enfermedad, o solo saber como me va con el tratamiento, información de mis citas con el especialista y resultado de mis exámenes médicos, pueden ir a mi blog, el cual actualizo con regularidad.
