Hope for help with Mom's cancer struggle
Here's a little info on my mom's for those who don't know her. She's a proud gramma/mother of 4 (and anyone else she comes across) and raised us as a single mom.
She works as a CNA for a skilled nursing facilty and on-call for an assisted living facility.
I'm sure it goes without saying but my mom is always worrying about/ taking care of others.
Even when we had nothing the neighborhood kids would tell you about her "k-mart sandwiches" and her always trying to feed everyone. (she still does)
Mom was recently diagnosed with cervical cancer.
She's the rock in our family, and she's very scared about everything. She's got a journey of chemo and radiation.
Finances are a huge worry for her. It's the worst time of year to be going through this.
We've told her that Christmas presents are a no-go this year, but we'd really like it if she could have the holidays without worrying about whether her bills will be paid. My mom is so kind and giving. The medical bills alone are crippling, and insurance doesn't help as much as she needs. She's the main provider for her household, so finances are the last thing we want her to worry about while she's fighting cancer.
This is such a scary thing to go through. We just want her load to be lightened in some way.
