Help for the Hust family as they navigate Angie's leukemia

This is one of the harder things I’ve had to write. If this is the first time you hear this news, I’m sorry. But things have begun to progress past mine or Zach’s capabilities. And to be quite frank, I am sorely lacking in the support department. If you’re able share, donate, or just catch up on a call from time to time… Here’s our needs…

Back in December (6 months, I know), I was feeling off. I got a call saying I have “chronic myeloid leukemia”. The words stuck in my throat, I couldn’t even tell Zach right away.

We got through Christmas and were going to tell the kids. Then new years hit. Phoenix almost died. Between his seizure and not breathing. Our new year was the worst in a long time.

Before being allowed to go home we had to have CPS clear our home. They did. BUT… They said we had “3 other calls”. One was from a family member and deemed unfounded and instantly dismissed. The second was because they wanted to be sure there wasn’t any meds/drugs/cleaner that Phoenix could have gotten into. The third was some attitude/health concerns for the older kids. As of this month ALL cases have been closed, cleared and remedied.

On the 5th I ended up feeling terrible. Zach was at work, and it was just me at home with the 3 little babies. I checked my blood sugar level, and I was at 425. It was climbing fast. My sister stayed on the phone until Zach got home. By the time I was in the ER my sugar was 587. I was also in the first stages of a “stroke in evolution”. After 3 doses of insulin, tests, scans, ekgs, and tPAs and few hours. I was able to go home. With an order for ace inhibitors and insulin.

We received a call today as well that we have to move within a months’ time. So, we have to be able to find a large, kid and pet friendly home (somewhere in Whitman or Latah counties).

My car blew through a transmission back in April. And our Family car is hitting 300,000 miles.

My treatment for leukemia has been going well. Or as well as we can be hoping for. My blood type being RH Null made any hope for a transfusion impossible to match. However, my doctor has been diligent and optimistic about a stem cell transplant. We are looking at fall for that to happen.

We’re starting this go fund me because I have stepped back from work, medical bills, housing, and praying to find another family or commuter car to meet our needs. This season of life has been detrimentally draining for us. We appreciate all of the love, support and kindness we have from all in our corner. Our needs are tallying just about 25,000 for this year. Any and all help is beyond appreciated.
