I beat cancer and wish to go to school
Donation protected
Hi! My name is Brandon and I’m 34, living in southern Florida. My life turned upside down in February 2020. One day I fell to my knees in blinding pain. It felt as if I were shot in the back. I had fractured and herniated 4 discs, and learned that my bones had been weakened from a blood cancer called Multiple Myeloma. For the next 18 months I learned how to walk again in rehabilitation, while starting chemo. I had a successful bone marrow transplant last year, and am recovering very well. I’m eager to get my life going again. To be honest, I used to have no direction in life. Today, I’m so grateful to be alive and I want to make the most out of life. I want to get a certification in medical billing and coding. Because of my back, a desk job is my only option. But it has the advantage of the working from home and moving anywhere! My dream is to move around the world every 2 years. I will make the most of the time I have left. The coding certification is $4,000. I have $2,000 put away but am struggling to save more. It would mean so much if you can throw a few sheckles into my savings. Even just a buck or two! I’ll send you a picture of me holding my certification in 6 months :)
