Help Save a Life: Brother's Cancer Fight
Donation protected
I’m asking for help for my brother! He has been battling cancer for a couple of years. He was diagnosed with myelofibrosis Cal-R, which is one of the rarest of the type. Usually, myelofibrosis is where it raises your platelets or lowers your hemoglobin. The Cal-R does both! This particular cancer, Myelofibrosis, is a rare type of bone marrow cancer. In this condition, extensive scarring (fibrosis) occurs in the bone marrow, which keeps the bone marrow from producing the right number of blood cells. He is currently in a clinical trial to save his life which has consists of consistent doctor's visits for injections and routine lab work and during the month of August he will need to be off work for a couple weeks! He has been out of work off and on during his trial and previous treatments that were unsuccessful. He is a long distance truck driver and in order for him to stay in this clinical trial he cannot take on the long hauls in order to satisfy the necessary appointments to stay in this clinical trial! The trial has so far been successful so we need to keep in this! Past treatments has had adverse reactions to where he could hardly walk and they had only addressed his platelet count. He needs financial help! We’re all trying to help but it’s not enough. If I can help raise enough money for him to continue to be in this trial and keep a roof over his head, it would be amazing! I know in this economy it’s hard to donate but honestly anything is help!
We recently (3 years ago) found each other on ancestry. I don’t want to lose him now! We are exactly alike, the foods we like, we say the same things at the same time, the life we lived, we are Irish twins! I can’t lose him now! Please, if you can help in any way, we would be so appreciative.
He’s such a giving person! He does fundraisers for so many people including toys for toys! Now he needs a fundraiser to help him! Please, if you can help, please help! Share, donate, anything at this point would be helpful! This will pay rent, food and replace wages being lost while being in this clinical trial!
I will also be doing DoorDash and UberEats to help the donations along!
