Help Tonya beat cancer - again!
Tonya was diagnosed with urothelial cancer in her kidney last year, and completed a grueling round of chemo after having surgery to remove her affected kidney. Unfortunately, she recently learned that her cancer is back in three lymph nodes near where the initial cancer was located in her kidney. She had those three lymph nodes removed this last week, and has a 6-8 week recovery from that, in addition to trying to navigate what her next treatment steps are.
Tonya has a wonderful son, named Gavin, who she adores. The goal of this fundraiser is to help relieve some of the financial burden so she can focus on not only her treatment, but also on Gavin. While Tonya does have insurance, it only covers in-network coverage. She is looking to get a second opinion from MD Anderson, which will cost $4000 or more, but is so very necessary for her to beat this.
