Medical an other bills for thyroid cancer surgery
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Candice. Im 33 years old, and I've been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. This will be kinda long, so I have made it easy to skip ahead if you'd like to look for bold print to skip around. SITUATION. I have thyroid cancer and will be out of work. I have a couple of friends and family members willing to help me get to and from doctors appointments. Also, bring me what I may need when the time comes for surgery and radiation pills. They are not able to necessarily keep their household running and pay for mine. My only concern is that I live alone and have no real financial stability. I work 42 hours a week but with the rises in prices on... everything im still living paycheck to paycheck . The doctor told me I would be out of work for 3-4 weeks with the surgery, radiation pill, and healing in general. THE NEED. I'm just asking if you can. As I know the world is hard right now, donate a $1. If 2,500 people can do that for me, then I will be able to afford to be out of work and not worry about losing everything I've worked so hard for. Yes, I will qualify for medical leave at my job and still receive a percentage of my paycheck. Unfortunately , it takes time for that to actually kick in as well as the percentage will not be enough to cover my bills. I'm just looking for enough to pay my rent, car note and light bill. Im willing to let my phone be turned off. It's not a necessity. MY BIGGEST FEAR AND PAST. I'm scared to lose everything and have to start over again.... I'll tell you a little bit of why, but by no means is this even the tip of the iceberg. I've had a rough childhood that resulted in a lot of trauma. My teenage years were no better. That resulted in a rough little start in this world. I have been homeless in Roanoke City before. I managed to navigate and survive homelessness, got a good job, and an apartment. It took time to get there, but I did it. Then I got into a relationship for a few years it was great. Then the he guy i was dating turned into a monster he would beat me pretty bad. One night, he put a g!n to my head, pushed me down a flight of steps and put his foot on my head against the steps, and pushed down hard. That night, I made my mind up that he was definitely capable of killing me. That he would not and maybe could never change. I decided to escape in the middle of the night. I then lived in the battered women shelter in Roanoke. I had to lose my job, my apartment. As he made it clear to me, he was looking for me. He was trying to kill me. I left with my purse and the clothes on my back. It took me a longer time to recover from that than it should have. Im finally back on my feet. I have a Great job with a new promotion, my own apartment, and a car... standard living situation. Im scared that being out of work will take me back to homelessness. Please help prevent that. Im not asking for the world, im asking for survival. THE SURGERY will be to have my thyroid completely removed. They will send the organ off for testing to ensure no spreading has occurred. Then, I will have to take a radiation pill that will make me radioactive for a few days. At that point, it's not safe for me to be around anyone or anything really. As long as there was no spreading in any tissue, I should be considered Cancer free. If you can't donate, then please consider helping me by sharing with your friends and social media.
