Help Kelly Overcome Medical and Financial Struggles
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Kris. I am setting up this fundraiser for my sister Kelly. The past year and a half have been very hard on her medically and financially. Her story started in May 2023 when she was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer. So thankful it was caught early because of preventative screenings she was getting. She received a few months of chemo and went into remission. Jump forward to this year when she had a follow-up MRI and a 4 cm mass was found around a lymph node in her right breast. Her doctors started her on radiation and chemo. She is still on chemo pills until Jan 2025 when she has an MRI to see if it shrunk enough to remove. She had to stop the radiation because it was affecting her kidneys. On October 3, she was having an MRI of her kidneys to check for functionality, they saw that one was completely closed off. She had to have surgery, right away, to put a stent in the artery going to the kidney. She is currently recovering from that at home while the bills are piling up. As you can imagine she has had to miss quite a bit of work and she is trying her best when she feels well enough to work, but that isn’t enough to cover everything.
We are asking for any donations you can give to help Kelly pay her bills and be able to focus on her health. Kelly is kind, giving, and very hard-working. So please help her in any way you can. If you can’t donate, that is ok, but we ask that you forward this post to get the word out. Thank you so much in advance.
