My name is Inga, and I am a wife, a mother to my 12-year-old son, and a fighter in a battle I never expected to last this long.

This is not a new opportunity that suddenly appeared. For years, I have been doing everything possible to stay alive. Until the very last moment, my doctors and I continued chemotherapy and immunotherapy, pushing forward as long as my body could handle it. We fought with every available treatment. But now my doctors have told me that I can no longer receive chemotherapy or immunotherapy because my organs may not be able to withstand any more. After exhausting all standard options, clinical research trials are the only remaining chance for me.

For more than five years, I have been fighting a rare and aggressive T-cell lymphoma. During that time, I have endured over 300 chemotherapy treatments, over 200 radiation treatments, a transplant using two cord blood units, multiple relapses, and countless hospital stays.

I have lost my hair, my health, my strength, and many parts of the life I once knew. Yet I am still here. I keep fighting because I want to live. I want to watch my son grow up. I want more time with my family.

Recently, my doctors identified a new opportunity at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, one of the world's leading cancer centers. They are evaluating me for a promising clinical trial that may offer an option when many standard treatments have already failed.

Getting to MD Anderson and completing the required testing, consultations, travel, and extended stay around 30-60 days for the first time . Then I’ll have to live between two states. is beyond what my family can currently afford. Years of treatment have created an overwhelming financial burden, and my husband's income alone is no longer enough to cover these additional expenses.

I am asking for help so I can pursue this opportunity.

Every donation, every share, and every prayer gives me a chance to continue this fight.

Thank you for standing with me and my family during the hardest journey of our lives.

With gratitude,

Inga
