Humbly seeking your help with my cancer
I try to lead a quiet and humble life. I don't like to talk about myself, and I don't like to ask for help, but I am at a place where I have to do both.
I have been diagnosed with cancer. I have some scar tissue from earlier in life that has caused issues from time to time over the years, but last year it turned on me. What was inconvenient scar tissue is now a fairly concerning tumor. The recent flare-up has been extremely uncomfortable to painful and limits my mobility. It is right under my belt line. "Real" pants rub, bending rubs, twisting rubs, direct pressure is excruciating.
I am facing surgery soon to have it removed. Due both to its size and location, my recovery is potentially extended and difficult. I will likely be a couple of months out of work and facing an ever-increasing list of related bills and expenses.
My first concern is being a cooperative patient. I am listening to my doctors and following their instructions, but I also have to be concerned about paying those doctors. I will what I can, as I can, but my resources are pretty tapped out right now.
I know it's a lot to ask, but please, if you can assist me with a few dollars, I would be more appreciative than I can possibly express. Even if you cannot help, thank you so much for your concern.
