Sheila’s Life-Saving treatment
The word Cancer is devastating. If you have been diagnosed or a family member of yours has, then you personally know you have to rally the troops.
That’s what we are here to do for
Sheila Ann Coulter-Reynolds.
November 19, 2020 Sheila was admitted into the hospital and from that day forward it has been a roller-coaster. After being admitted for what we hoped was residual nerve pain from a bout of shingles over the summer was NOT that, but much worst. They found lesions in her lungs and liver. A series of test and MRI’s lead to the diagnosis of that awful word; cancer. After meeting with the oncologist he recommended MRI of her brain just to make sure it hadn’t metastasized there as well. As if the news couldn’t get worse, they found cancer in her brain as well.
For those of you who know her, she is an amazing mother, wife, friend, and her favorite title “Noni”. She has four sons and one daughter, a step daughter, a step son, and the icing on the cake is her 11 grand children. Sheila finds joy in being surrounded with her children and the laughs and giggles of the grandkids as they play with all the treasures she has collected.
Unfortunately Sheila is not a newbie to cancer. Sadly she has lost both of her parents to it. After watching a horrendous battle of lung cancer with her own father she profoundly remembers at the end of his life him saying he had wished he chosen a different treatment than the chemotherapy.
This is the part your donation comes in. Sheila knows that physically she is not up to partaking on huge doses of chemotherapy, radiation and immunotherapy. She has found an alternative treatment that we hope will give her better quality of life for the time she has left. The unfortunate part of this treatment is it is not covered by any insurance. Any donations raised will go directly to Sheila's treatments and care.
We truly hope that with this treatment her pain will decrease and she will feel better. We just want the time she has to be able to be spent with her family making happy memories, not sick and weakened by chemotherapy.
