Help Jhayla Fight Cancer
Donation protected
Jhayla has just turned 18-years-old and was enjoying high school. At the end of her junior year, she discovered a lump in her back.
She was sent to several doctors who appeared to not care, the lump was never tested until finally she went to one of many doctors who thought the lump was a cyst. This doctor removed the lump during surgery, and the lump was tested and it was found to be a sarcoma. Sarcoma is a type of cancer that can occur in various locations in your body.
So Jhayla had to go to surgery two weeks later to remove the carcoma and any cancerous cells.
Currently she is going through 3 days of chemotherapy every 21 days and proton therapy and radiation on a daily basis.
Due to this, beautiful Jhayla has lost her hair, is very weak and has lost so much weight she currently weighs 94lbs, most of the time Jhayla is unable to keep food down or eat.
Jhayla has a huge personality and a contagious smile, she is the baby of 4 children.
During the last 45 days Jhayla has spent 20 days in the hospital due to viruses, chemotherapy and reactions to said chemotherapy.
Jhayla has been diagnosed with a rare cancer which attacks the muscles.
As of now, Jhayla’s treatment will continue for the next few months.
This is a battle that no one especially a child should ever have to face, and has been difficult for Jhayla and her single mother Tanya, who is raising 2 other children by herself with a son in college, who depends upon only his mother.
Tanya has been by her daughter, Jhayla’s side from the beginning never leaving, being a source of support, a pillar of strength, and a loving doting parent.
Jhayla sisters and brother are supporting as much as possible.
But as a single mother who is unable to work full time due to caring for her child, this is a hardship that is difficult to bear.
I am asking for your help with Jhayla’s treatment and her mother so Jhayla has a home to return to after treatments without her mother worrying about finances. Jhayla’s mother Tanya is the only person who is paying currently for travel expenses, any future medical deductibles and prescriptions.
Any help is appreciated. We ask for your prayers and financial help.
