Help my parents while my mom recovers from chemo
Donation protected
Last June my mom (Nancy) was diagnosed with breast cancer. Originally there would be chemo, one major surgery in January, and then radiation. Since the beginning, she has had 2 surgeries for infections and 2 separate surgeries for mastectomies. It's already been less than a month since her last surgery, and she has improved so much! She is still dealing with infections, but currently has a wound vac that is helping a ton.
My mom is a preschool teacher who misses her students dearly. She has not been able to work since the end of July, and we currently do not know when she is able to go back full time. With Covid and the effects of chemo on her body, it's gonna be a while before she can get back to working with energetic 4-year-olds again.
I want nothing more than my parents to not worry about medical and other bills. Especially since insurance has delayed certain infusions because of "coverage". She does not qualify for unemployment. Since the beginning, my mom has mentioned making a gofundme but she would never make one for herself. I really do not want her to rush getting back to work to just be able to pay bills.
My dad works full time but has had to take a lot of time off for doctor's appointments and surgeries.
It means the world to me if you are able to donate a little. I don't really have a goal, just want to help them rent, utilities, car payments, groceries, etc.
This might sounds scrambled, but I hope it makes sense. I just want to make everything known. The last 7ish months have been filled with anxiety and panic and worrying about money has not helped. I want to be able to help take some of the worries off my parent's plate so they can focus on healing.
Thank you :)
