My name is Alex. I am a husband, a father, and a man of faith. I have always believed that life is a gift from God and that even in suffering, purpose is never absent.

I am currently battling multiple myeloma, a serious and incurable blood cancer that affects the bone marrow, immune system, and skeletal structure. In my case, the disease has caused significant bone involvement, particularly in my pelvis and lower spine. This has led to ongoing pain, nerve irritation, and periods of reduced mobility that affect my ability to walk, sit, sleep, and function normally.

I am undergoing active treatment, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and high-dose steroids, designed to control the disease, reduce cancer activity, and protect my bones. While these treatments are necessary and lifesaving, they come with significant side effects such as fatigue, weakened immunity, pain flares, and nerve symptoms. Some days my body feels completely drained, and rest alone is not enough.

There are periods when my condition worsens, and I must be admitted to the hospital for several days at a time. During these admissions, I am unable to work at all. There are also days outside of the hospital when the pain and physical limitations are so severe that I cannot manage to go to work and must stay home because I am unable to walk or function properly. These unpredictable interruptions have placed a heavy financial strain on my family.

Adding to this burden, I do not yet have Medicare, which means that many of my medical expenses are paid out of pocket. Hospital visits, specialist appointments, medications, scans, and supportive treatments quickly add up. The cost of staying alive and continuing treatment is something I face daily alongside the physical pain.

Although I do have health insurance, it does not cover the full cost of my care. I have already reached the maximum limit for outpatient services, and my inpatient coverage has been significantly reduced to 60%. This means that a large portion of my hospital admissions, specialist visits, medications, scans, and supportive treatments now has to be paid directly out of pocket.

Because my treatment is ongoing and unpredictable, these costs continue to accumulate. There are periods when I must be admitted to the hospital for several days at a time, during which I am unable to work. There are also many days when pain, reduced mobility, and fatigue prevent me from functioning normally or leaving the house. Each hospital admission and missed workday increases the financial pressure on my family.

The combination of reduced insurance coverage, high medical expenses, and loss of income has placed us in a position we never anticipated. We are doing everything we can to manage, but the reality is that the cost of treatment and basic living expenses has become overwhelming. This is why I am reaching out for help during this difficult season

Through all of this, my faith has been my anchor. I hold tightly to the truth that God is still present in the storm. “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18). On the days when my strength fails, I lean on His strength.

I am fighting not only for my own life, but for my family and friends . My wife and children are my greatest motivation. I want to be present for them — to love, provide, and walk with them into the future God has planned. However, this illness has affected my ability to work consistently, and the combination of medical costs and lost income has become overwhelming.

The funds raised through this campaign will help with:

Cancer treatment, medications, and supportive care

Hospital admissions and specialist appointments

Out-of-pocket medical expenses due to lack of Medicare

Transport and treatment-related costs

Basic living expenses during periods when I am unable to work

Supporting my family through this season of uncertainty

Asking for help is not easy. I have always believed in standing on my own feet. But I am learning that strength also means allowing others to help carry the load. “Carry each other's burdens, and in this way, you will fulfill the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2).

If you are able to donate, we receive it with deep gratitude. If you are unable to give, sharing this page to your friends or lifting us in prayer is just as meaningful. Every act of kindness reminds us that we are not alone.

I trust that God is still writing my story — and that this chapter, though painful, is not the end. Thank you for standing with me and my family in faith, love, and hope.

With gratitude and faith,

Alex Nyamira
