Fighting for Natasha

Donation protected

Hi my name is Natasha im 27 years old and I recently married the love of my life. We have been together for 10 years and I couldn't be happier that Kyle chose to love me all this time! He is the the most loving thoughtful man. I am so thankful God brought him into my life. For the past 9 years of our relationship I have been battling Hodgkins lymphona (cancer) I was diagnosed when I was 19 and have been fighting this battle ever since. I have relapsed more times than i can even rememebr at this point. And I have also gone through treatment so many times that i am losing count. There where so many times when we thought we beat this nasty disease only to find out it was back. But still he stuck by my side.
 
 
After many long years of fighting the cancer is back yet again. But this time is different than all the rest. The cancer has spread through out my entire body. Including my bones, spine and some organs. Causing an immense amount of pain and fear. The cancer has progressed so much that the doctors have diagnosed me as terminal and haven't given me many more months to live. We aren't sure how much time i have left on this precious earth so we are trying our best to cherrish every moment we have. At this point in my battle with cancer we have exhausted all the treatments for my type of cancer. So we are currently seeking help from a doctor at the City of Hope to find some way to help us. Time is of the essence and we are very scared.  And unfortuntely facing something like this comes with a great amount of stress and the need for help. We are headed towards a lot of insurance issues and medical bills. And I have had to unfortuntely  quit working (which totally stinks because i love my job it brought so much encouragment to my life but phsyically i just couldn't do it anymore) and not being able to work has taken a huge toll on us financially and we are struggling. 

I have held off on even starting one of these GoFund me things because to be honest asking for help especially financially is one of the hardest things to do and so humbling to your spirit. I have wrestled with God asking him what to do and it has taken me a lot to even start typing this. I have thought about a million different ways to write this and ask for help and i keep replaying what to write in my head over and over. It is kind of scary that they even ask you for a dollar amount "Goal" because i didn't even know what to put. We just need help no matter how big or small. So im asking now because i don't really know what else to do anymore. And all we want is a little bit of relief through this struggle. What we need most is help for medical bills, regular bills and to be honest just to simply to buy groceries. With the upcoming insurance switches and trying to get back to the City of Hope where i know they can help me we aren't sure what kinds of financial struggles are ahead for us. And we are so scared. We are thankful for help in anyway that someone can give. 


This is so unbelievably humbling and proabably one of the most vulnerable things I have ever had to do. But im faithful in Gods plan and im trusting him to take care of us. I still believe he has a miracle in store for me and that I will be healed of this disease. I know with the holidays coming up times are tough but we are thankful for even the smallest gestures of help. And even if you can't help financially, strong prayers for healing are all we are asking for. Please do not feel obligated to help. We are only asking for help if you can. We know God is in control and he will take care of the rest for us. Thank you to everyone who even takes the time to read this. And thank you to all the people who send me encouragement on a daily basis. 

Philippians 4:13 "i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" 

With so much love,
