Hello everyone my name is April. In November of 2019 I was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer. I had a double mastectomy in December of 2019. I started chemotherapy and radiation in February 2020. That was a difficult time for me and my family. My faith and marriage was tested. I pushed through with the love and support of my family and friends. In October of 2020 I beat cancer's butt and was in remission. God is good. I was getting my life back on track and finding myself again.
For a year and a half my right arm and back was hurting and my oncologist could not find anything wrong. My oncologist ordered CtScans, MRIs, PetScan and ultrasounds and she could not find anything wrong.
Well things changed in June of this year. My annual PetScan showed the cancer came back and spread to my bones ( Right arm, back, ribs and pelvis). I was devastated and heartbroken. I wasn't expecting the cancer to come back.
My oncologist informed me that the cancer had spreaded to my right arm and it was bad. She sent me to an orthopedic specialist and the orthopedic informed me that I had to have surgery. So on August 11th my orthopedic doctor placed a rod and screws in my arm so I could be able to use my right arm.
While I was in surgery my job let me go while I was on unpaid medical leave.
I am asking for financial help and prayers. I don't have a car and since my surgery its been hard getting to my treatments and appointments and also buying medical supplies. I know times are hard for everyone so whatever you can give I will be grateful.
Thank you in advance and may God continue to bless you and your families.
