Help a Mother of Three Beat Cancer

Donation protected
In May 2018 our good friend Evgeniya, known to her friends as Jane, had a beautiful baby boy, her third son Peter. However, the happiness and excitement about their new bundle of joy was soon darkened by horrible news. Just two weeks after having the baby Jane was diagnosed with cancer, squamous cell carcinoma. 
Shocked and completely uncertain on what to do, Jane followed all the recommendations of her oncologist and started chemo therapy. Six sessions of chemo later Jane was dealing with all the distressing side effects, such as losing hair, exhaustion, depressive mood, etc... yet still had cancer.
Having lost hope for help from chemo, Jane turned to alternative methods of treatment as well as made changes to her diet and lifestyle. As her hair was growing out the bills were piling up, credit cards were maxed out, and the family ended up in a financial crisis. With only one income at their disposal, they can hardly pay their bills and have accumulated $20,000 of credit card debt. The expenses associated with the cancer treatment combined with raising three kids (ages 5, 3, and 1)  have depleted all of the family's resources. Needless to say, the financial crisis Jane and her husband are experiencing is having a major negative effect on their relationship as well.
Jane initially declined our offer to have money raised for her, determined to cope on her own. However, at this point, when money is needed to cover bare necessities, food, bills, and medical expenses, and having no other options, Jane finally agreed to have this page set up on her behalf.
Please consider donating to this fund to help Jane and her family go through this battle with cancer. She will be beyond grateful for any contribution.
