Help with paying for one of gavins chemo medicines

**Update. We are almost done with chemo just 2 more cycles. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts. Thanks to everyone I was able to reach the goal set. However we learned that one of the chemo meds Gavin needs is not being covered by his insurance. The substitute medicine is kind of in trial stages for his cancer and is actually for kidneys not brain. He is late on getting it so I am having to reach out hopefully ine last time. We are trying to work a payment plan out with the hospital but since he has insurance the financial department can't help us. Please help by donating so we can try and set sone kind if payment plan up so he doesn't miss out on his treatments.  Thank you and god bless.  Hello my name is Christopher Robinson. My son Gavin whom is currently 10 was diagnosed with medullablastoma which is a rather rare brain cancer that affects mainly children and my worst nightmare. Initially the dr said he had migraines because he had extreme headaches and got to where he couldn't walk or keep his balance. We went back to the Er and I told the dr that something wasnt right and the dr did a ct scan of his brain and thats when the Dr came back to tell me that my son which is my baby my youngest has brain cancer. I was devastated and the only one there because I am a single parent. I fell to the floor and begged the dr to just stop and wake me up already. He couldn't give me much time to digest the fact that I was just given the worse news imaginable because we had to be air lifted to a hospital that could treat him. Which we flew off to corpus Christi Driscoll children's hospita and the next day or morning he had the much anticipated brain surgery. His surgeon which i will name is Dr Hannah was amazing and an angel sent to help him and I. The surgery was almost 8 hours but was a total success. She said she was 100% sure that she was able to remove 100% of the tumor. I owe her my life or any organ I could give her if she ever needs. I owe her my life. After the surgery the oncologist explained to me that it was an aggressive cancer which in order to cure he is going to have a rather aggressive treatment plan which consist of 6 weeks of radiation or proton therapy actually and then 6 months of chemo. He has completed his radiation and got to ring a going and have a little celebration of completion party. I cried so many tears of joy. He has been so tough and only cried maybe 4 times thru out it all so far. The time that hurt me the most was when he asked me to step out of the exam room and as I did I heard him breakdown and start crying right after asking the nurse "why me?" Gavin has been so tough and brave and as his parent by myself ive learned to control my emotions and not really let him see me cry or be worried. This whole experience has been so humbling and strengthened or faith on god. It took me almost 6 months before ive broken down and swallowed my pride enough to get on here to ask for your help. We have held up pretty well considering I have had to leave my Job and instead of renewing my lease I or we chose to move in with my mother. I am a single dad of Gavin who is 10 his sister mckinzye who is 14 and my oldest son Jayden who is now 16. Ive been fighting myself about asking for help but several people I have talked to explained to me that were all human and sometimes we need help and that there is nothing wrong for me to reach out and ask for help. For the longest and even now as I m typing I m not sure how I feel about asking yall for some help I kind of see it as almost begging. Ive had to work for everything in life and I m proud of that. Now looking back I was actually lucky to be able to work and do the best I could to support my kids and give them the best life i possibly can. Now currently I have been officially out of work since Oct 12 which was gavins first cycle of chemo which did not go well at all. His body took the chemo harder than any of the drs had anticipated. His kidneys was shutting down and he went right at 4 weeks without eating or drinking. He was on IV fluids so long that because of that he ended up getting fluid around his heart and lungs. He spent over 30 days admitted in the hospital because of the side effects of the chemo. Then he was only out for about a week or so before it was time to already do the chemo again. I think I would like for him to take maybe a month off from chemo because hes lost half his weight in the 2 months of chemo and was going thru the painful and sickness side effects from the chemo. He recently had another ct scan of the brain and I'm joyful to be able to say that his brain and everything looks perfectly normal!! Which makes the decision of wheter or not give him a small break from the chemo is so scary because I done want to do anything that might possibly make the tumor come back. I don't know if its because of tbe chemo keeping the tumor from coming back or is it maybe gone and gone for good? We don't know the answer to that 100% so its a very scary and serious decision to make about pausing chemo for a while for him to recover and strengthen a Lil. The whole ordeal has been so hard and the scariest thing I have ever had to face in life yet. Currently we are staying as close to md Anderson hospital in Houston as we can and for as long as we can. Cash and saving are dwindling fast and xmas is getting closer way to fast for me. While we first learned of this and while going thru the initial brain surgery, someone decided they needed my catalytic converter on our only vehicle. It was only supposed to have cost around $500 to repair but after putting it in the shop I was informed it was gonna be close to $3500 to properly repair it. We've managed to do ok without it by utilizing uber and Lyft which also nickel and dimes us. For our road trips from home in victoria to his appointments in Houston we have had to take the greyhound bus. I don't like having to put him on it with all the covid possibly out there. I feel so bad but we don't have much of a choice at this point. Its crazy how our world was turned upside down literally over night. I understand life isn't fair sometimes which is why I guess I finally decided to get here and ask for help. Gavin is scheduled to be done with his chemo in march so we or I guess as long as I cam manage to keep everything together then i assume we will be fine. Honestly I want and been asking for prayers of strength and healing for Gavin and our family. I m sorry but I guess at this point is where I breakdown and push what pride I have left to the side to ask you all for a Lil help in any way rather a monetary donation or a simple prayer is all we need. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart as well as Gavin s. He will be 11 on the 20th and then Xmas 5 days later. I am so not ready or even close to being ready for Xmas. I am not sure what I am actually going to do. I know the solution to the main problem is for me to get back to work and pull us out of this hole we drifted in but unfortunately I can't work right now because he has so many appointments and also they check him in now every month to do his chemo which the dr says usually he will only be admitted for 7-10 days. I want to work but unfortunately I have to pripritize life and problems right now and Gavin needs me more than ever now and as a single parent I will always be there for him. I just wish I could pause life for just a few weeks so I could go to work to get us Xmas and our car fixed or a different one. Again I am extremely humbled by all this so I am still embarased a little to ask for help but please help us in any way that u can. May god bless you all with good health and good fortune. I always try to help anyone in anyway I can.
