HELP RIZWAN CRUSH CANCER
Don protégé
Muhammad Rizwan Ali is our youngest uncle and was recently diagnosed with stage 4 oral cancer. A minor sore in his mouth turned out to be cancerous, which we later found out was stage 4 cancer. This all started in April at the height of COVID-19. He is self-employed and has not worked since the state of Texas shutdown. He has not been able to work since, due to tremendous pain and rapid growth of the cancer.
He needs to get surgery immediately to first remove the cancer, then continue the treatment with radiation and chemo. He was referred to MD Anderson Cancer Center by his doctor, but was unable to get any treatment over there. After repeatedly being turned away from MD Anderson due to low income and insurance issues, he is finally getting surgery on 07/13/2020 at Methodist Hospital in Houston Medical Center.
It is a long and complicated surgery which will take a minimum of 12-14 hours and includes a team of surgeons working together. The surgery also includes removing parts of his bone and skin from his leg to reconstruct his jaw and face. He will be unable to walk and will have to have a cast on his leg for 4 weeks.
The doctors are recommending a recovery period of 6-8 months which includes complete rest. He will be unable to work and provide for family during this time. His family includes an elderly mom, a wife, and two young kids. He needs funds as soon as possible for his surgery, chemo, hospital and medical bills, and physical therapy. Because he will be unable to work, he will also need help during recovery for his basic living expenses like rent, utilities, food and bills.
It's extremely urgent for us to raise funds for our uncle. We as a family are doing everything we can to help him and his family. We are reaching out to the community to ask for help in his time of need. Please find it in your heart to help Rizwan and family. Any amount that you can donate will help them tremendously. Thank you for your support and kindness.
