FUNDRAISER FOR MEDICAL EXPENSES

Donation protected

Hello, most of you know me and for those that don't my name is Mike Butts, I'm 48 yrs born in Leaksville, Mississippi.Raised in Bridge City, Texas my entire life. That's where, I attended school. In June 2021 ~ I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Sarcoma Cancer. I have a tumor in my arm that's cancerous. It's also went to the bone in my arm and a few lipnoids under my arm pit. I've been asked by several family members and friends to make a fundraiser page but I'm so humble and this is very hard for me to do. I've always worked and provided for our own needs. I've never had to depend on anyone for anything. I have a wonderful Medical Team of Doctor's at MD Anderson. My professional team has a pretty aggressive treatment plan that I have to undergo. 6 cycles of Chemotherapy treatments, possibly 5 weeks of Radiation then Reconstructive surgery on my arm to remove the cancerous bone and reconstruct me a new arm. I get hospitalized for my Chemotherapy for 6 day's because the medication they give me is the strongest cancer medicine for this type of cancer and it runs 24 hrs a day also my Hemoglobin is very low. I've already had a total of 8 blood transfusions and I've only completed 2 cycles of chemo. I go back next week for my 3rd cycle. My plan was to work on the 2 weeks I'm off of Chemo. But my doctor and my body isn't allowing that to happen because I barely have any white blood cells my count is extremely low. I'm very susceptible of any kind of virus, infection and etc.. I'm unable to work and make money to take care of myself, my medication, parking at the hospital, co-pays for doctor visits, food, gas, etc... This is a hard one for me to swallow. If you could spare anything, no matter the amount of your gifted donations.They are ALL appreciated. I'm more than grateful to have each and everyone of you on MY TEAM! This really saddens me to have to ask for this I'm not that kind of person! I appreciate everyone’s messages, text and calls, they really lift my spirits up. We read each and everyone of them and I'm extremely thankful for all the Prayers thanks and Please keep them coming. I still have a long Journey ahead of me.Thank you in advance for anything you and you're family is able to spare.

Love,

Mike Butts
