HELP, FOR MOM
Donation protected
About 4 weeks ago, we found out my mom has Stage 3, non small cell lung cancer. This was horrible news for our family to hear. The doctors suggested chemotherapy, and my mom had her first chemotherapy session on May 5th. Due to Covid only 1 person is allowed to be with her for her 1st session only. Afterwards she must do her, 8 hour chemotherapy alone. Her first session was okay, no complications that day.
Then 2 days later she had a hard time breathing and her pulse ox was in the low 80's (definitely not good) so the ambulance took her to the hospital. Where we then found out she has pneumonia. They admitted her to the ICU unit and she spent 3 nights in the hospital.
She's been back home since Monday, requiring more O2. And at least as of today everything seems to be going well. Her next chemotherapy session is scheduled for 5/26 (they are every 3 weeks/ 8 hour sessions)
Now the reason I am asking for help for my mom is, obviously insurance will never pay for everything($7000 out-of-pocket before insurance) But she currently is not working, and my dad still works full-time and has been missing alot of days, to help get mom to her appointments. So I am just asking anyone, any amount will be greatly appreciated. It's just a stress they should not have to endure during this time.
Also if you unable to help monetarily, please pray for my mom and our family during this time
Thank you!
