Hi, my name is Brandon and I am managing my mother’s (Lizzy’s) account. I am her 14-year-old child and am trying to raise money to pay for my mother’s chemo. This is her message to you:

Hello everyone, my name is Lizzy Casstell. I am single and originally from Peru. I work as a waitress and arrived in this beautiful country some time ago. I have a 14-year-old son, a handsome young man with an admirable level of academic excellence.

Today, I’m using this platform to share my situation with you. I was recently diagnosed with cancer in both breasts, and I am also severely underweight—practically malnourished—which makes everything even more difficult. Since this began, as you can imagine, my world has changed unexpectedly. I have more questions than answers, but also the determination to fight with everything I am, relying on my faith.

Medical expenses have already become extremely overwhelming, even though I haven’t yet started chemotherapy and immunotherapy. I do have insurance, but the amount of money I need to fight this illness is still very high.

That is why today, with my hand on my heart, I ask for your valuable support. Any amount is extremely important to me, and I appreciate it deeply. Please help me obtain the funds I need to fight for my life. Help me continue being the mother, daughter, sister, aunt, and woman that I am. Help me sustain myself with dignity during the time I am unable to work due to the treatments.

I thank you in advance, and may God bless you.
