Help Jenny Access Life-Saving Treatments

Hi, I'm Jenny,

While pregnant with my daughter, I developed a tumor in my cervix. It grew too large to remove after pregnancy, and I went through intense chemotherapy that did not do what was expected. I then was expected to do radiation, but after a surgery to remove a large cyst that tested positive for cancer, they said I was not a candidate for radiation. So now all they have is palliative care.

The tumor is blocking both my ureters, so I now have tubes in both my kidneys that the urine flows from into bags I carry at my sides.

I'm 42 years old and have regained my strength after treatment. I am determined and have so much left to do.

A dear friend referred me to a wonderful naturopath who is willing to help me with experimental approaches, but we have to pay for them ourselves, so she suggested that I reach out for help.

I am unable to work currently, and like most everyone, life is expensive.

My hope is to live through all of this. But in case I do not, I can't imagine leaving my husband with two little children and lots of debt.

So I'm asking for help.

My hope is to afford the alternative treatments and shrink the tumor, which may allow for a hysterectomy or, in the best scenario, put me in remission and out of pain so I can work at our local school and be close to both my children while making an income again.

I am grateful to whoever reads my story and finds it in their heart to help us. With love, ~Jenny Lyons
