Help A Love One To Fight Against Pancreatic Cancer

Donation protected
This is my husband Larry in the picture. I decided to sign up for this site hoping that I will find some help for my husband. My dear husband is in need of a miracle in his life and I am praying for God to help. Whomever read this sad cruel story and has the heart devoted to help others, I thank you right now, and I know whichever you donated, God will give you much more. Any donation is appreciated no matter how small.  I would like to share with you all my husband's story which is who I am doing this donation for. Seven years ago, I met my husband in Texas. Our first year together, that man was so healthy and happy. My husband, Larry, is a very good hearted person. He does not care about the material world. He came to my life when I must needed him. One year after we met, Larry woke up screaming of a painful sharp pain in his eyes. That pain made him beat his head on the wall for many times. He ended up on the floor and did the same thing, making him unconscious. After that time those attacks came more frequently. Sometimes two or three times a day. We decided to search for help. The doctors in the hospital diagnosed him with cluster headaches. Unfortunately cluster headaches do not have a cure nor medications specifically for this disease. The medications were very strong, very expensive, and ineffective. Moreover, Larry could no longer work as it was affecting him. We decided as a family to move to Florida to stay close with his family. When we arrived in Florida, he applied for Social Security. It took two years until this agency started paying him for disability. Meanwhile, this poor man between one attack to the other was doing surveys to help me pay the bills because he felt embarrassed about the situation. In the beginning of March 2020, Larry woke up with pain on the right side of his back. That pain lasted for a week. We decided to take him to the hospital. The nurses and doctors did a lot of tests. He then asked for pain relievers. The nurse could not give him anything until the oncologist could come to the hospital to see him. And of course we questioned why an oncologist was paying him a visit. I told the nurse that my husband does not need an oncologist because he does not have cancer. The nurse replied that they saw bad things inside of him and he was kept one more day in the hospital. The next day the oncologist arrived and requested an immediate endoscopy. After two days of endoscopy, we met at the doctor's office. He confirmed that my husband has Stage 4 Pancreatic cancer and it has passed to the liver and the lungs. We could not believe in any of that. I am a public school teacher assistant and I only earn $12 an hour. Larry has medicare, but it does not cover all he needs. With all this stress for all of us, every time we open the mailbox, we find a lot of medical bills to pay from hospitals and doctors. Larry does not want to owe nobody. He has to deal with this terrible issue of fighting for his life and now paying this huge amount of money that he already owes. My husband is in need of help for paying those bills, medications, things necessary for his treatments that are not covered by medicare. I thank God and each one of you that open your hearts to us and are willing to share a small amount of donation for our situation. With all the bad in the world, I am still a firm believer of miracles, God, and the kindness of humanity. God bless you all and thank you for reading our story.
