Help Jenny beat Leukemia
Donation protected
Hello Everyone,
Let me introduce you to a very special lady and my friend: Jenny North.
Jenny, suddenly, is in desperate need of help at this time in her life and she needs support not only from her family and friends but all good people that are wanting to offer help to people and families in crises.
Her story~~
Out of the blue, Jenny has been diagnosed with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (APL), an extremely rare and aggressive blood cancer with complications.
She has been hospitalized at Dartmouth Hitchcock Cotton Cancer Center in Hanover, NH located over 50 miles away from her home where they immediately started her on continuous Chemo. Due to the aggressive nature of this cancer, she is in a treatment program combining chemo with special drugs from a clinical trial designed to fight the leukemia and eradicate her complications. Treatment for APL required that Jenny remain under the watchful eye of Dartmouth doctors 24/7. She could not leave the facility until induction treatment was complete, and her Red Blood Cells, White Blood Cells, Blood Platelets and ANC levels are up to where it was safe enough that she could go home without getting sick. This went on for 6 weeks.
After this initial high intensity round of treatment, she was able to come home for two weeks before having to return to receive another three weeks of intense treatment at the Cotton Cancer Center. This treatment has fallen during Thanksgiving causing her to miss the typical joyous holiday celebration with family. Unfortunately she will have to continue to receive treatments like this for at least a year. This means she will be spending three weeks in the hospital for treatment followed by two weeks of treatment recovery for the next twelve months. She will continue to be focused on healing, but will only able to do a minimal amount of work at home. Your Help is so important to keep her attention where it belongs; On her LONG ROAD to RECOVERY.
Jenny is receiving great care, but medical costs keep mounting. She and her family live a simple lifestyle, but her enormous hospital care and continuing treatment bills are daunting. She was visited by a member of the hospital staff and was given information that only ONE of her several necessary medications has a cost of $9,000 a month! Just think of the immediate emotional and mental pain this caused her. She anxiously pondered, “How will I ever afford this necessity?” Her medical situation alone is already devastating for her family not to mention their inability to meet these financial obligations. Convalescence and further treatment will take months before she can fully return to work. Her family and loved ones have rallied around her but we are reaching out for help from all of you and help is needed NOW.
If you are able to give a little bit, please know you will be part of a large caring group who together can work miracles! And, if you are able to give a lot, please know it is your generosity that will push us all toward our goal of freeing Jenny from the stress of financial ruin so she can focus upon her new job of saving herself, deep inside, where her battle with this wicked disease must be won!
To each of you, we along with Jenny, say THANK YOU SO MUCH FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS! and wish that those who share may be blessed for their compassionate acts in her behalf!
