Help Geo Fight Leukemia and Lungs Complications
Donation protected
Hello everyone,
We are reaching out to you on behalf of John Barrera, who is affectionately known as Geo or Geovanni. Geo is a resilient 74-year-old individual who has been battling a rare form of leukemia known as Philadelphia Chromosome. His journey has been filled with ups and downs, and he urgently needs your support.
Geo has been undergoing treatment with Ponatinib, a medication used to combat this aggressive cancer. Unfortunately, this treatment has taken a toll on his arteries and heart, leading to severe complications. The doctors have recommended a switch to a new medication, Disatinib (Sprycel), which offers hope for his recovery. However, this medication comes with a substantial cost, including a monthly deductible of $2,580.
To make matters even more challenging, Geo is currently in the hospital fighting pneumonia, adding another layer of difficulty to his battle against leukemia. He's been through so much, and we want to ensure he receives the best possible care and treatment.
We are turning to the generosity of friends, family, and compassionate individuals like you to help us raise the funds needed to cover Geo's medical expenses, including the cost of Disatinib and the mounting hospital bills. Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in Geo's life.
Geo and his family greatly appreciate your emotional support during this challenging time. Geo has always been there for others, and now he needs our help more than ever. Let's rally together as a community to provide Geo with the care and treatment he needs to overcome leukemia and regain his health. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
Together, we can make a difference in Geo's life!
