Hello my name is Angela & I am facing an urgent medical challenge that requires surgery.
I have 2 tumors with some nodules that are in my lymph nodes. My Dr's have recommended to have them removed as well as my Thyroid.
This procedure is necessary for my long term health & well being. I am humbly reaching out for support to help cover the financial burden this has placed on me.
I have Kaiser insurance, which is covering a portion of the cost, but I am still responsible for 20% coinsurance of the cost. My part is $13.700, I have two wonderful non profits that have donated to help pay a portion but I still need to come up with $9,700 Out of Pocket.
Additional costs during recovery
Rent & Utilities
Food & Essentials
Post surgery medications and copays for follow up Dr appts
I currently work as a Site Supervisor, I had three jobs but in October I started getting really sick and month after month just got worse. I just laid in bed or on the couch. No energy, extreme fatigue, brain fog. Joint pain. I was not understanding what was happening to me but I knew something was wrong. I ended up in the ER and they found 2 tumors and nodules in the lymph nodes. My Dr recommended to have them removed along with the thyroid so I can have some kind of normalcy again.
I have a son who is paralyzed and I am the sole provider in our home and as the months have gone on I have started to slowly get more and more behind because I couldn't get up and go work my 2nd and 3rd job. I'm just being as honest as it comes because at this point I need help so I can have surgery and recover.
Tomorrow is the big day... Surgery Day!
I am scared and anxious. I just want to feel better and start living like everyone else is.
If you are able to help, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your kindness & generosity means everything in this difficult time.
With much Gratitude
Angela
PS..
I will post pics after surgery & recovery
