Hi, my name is Carol, and Tina is my Daughter (in law) and I want to thank you for taking the time to be here reading our story. Unfortunately, Tina has no living blood relatives to help support her in any way, so as her other Mother, I am doing everything I can to help my kids.
- UPDATE (10/18/23) - Tina was diagnosed with inoperable Stage 4 Colon cancer in Sept 2022. Last year she went through one round of Chemo which unfortunately DID NOT help. Her cancer continued to spread and her tumors in the liver got larger; engulfing 1/2 of her liver. After the first round of Chemo therapy failed, she went through a round of immunotherapy, which also failed. She is now going through a different Chemo treatment along with radiation. This Chemo treatment contains 3 different types of medication which is causing her much more side effects and extremely effecting her daily life.
- In 2022 $3,475 was raised for their 2022 medical bills.
- So far this year $1,025 has been raised.
Tina is not just my Daughter; she is a wife, a sister to our other kids, an Aunt and most importantly, a mother of her own 2 young adult children, and now she is fighting the battle that her mother lost. She has had to stop working where she cared for children within the school system and Rob has lost a lot of hours at work, caring for her in every way possible; she has not faced one appointment alone. He is a retired Army veteran who puts his family first and will continue to miss work to take care of his wife, whether it be her being ill or taking her to appointments. Their love is a sight to be seen, and they truly treasure each and every minute they have with each other.
Rob and Tina are required to pay $10,000 out of pocket; EACH YEAR; before the insurance company will pay 100% of the medical cost. On top of the $10,000 out of pocket they have to pay for the medical bills; with the loss of her job and his loss of hours, they will need more to help with regular household bills, which is why my goal is higher than their out of pocket cost. Not only that, we are in October 2023 right now and this out of pocket restarts in just over 2 months (Jan 1, 2024). Please bless our kids by donating to help them on this devastating journey. Every dollar is one more than they have. With your donation and the donations of all you share this with, we can achieve this gift for Tina and Rob so that they don't have to carry this burden alone.
Thank you to all of you for your donation, prayers and for sharing/passing this page to everyone you know and on every social media site you are on.
Sincerely,
The Cain Family
