Isabels Hodgkins Lymphoma Battle while Pregnant.
Donation protected
Hi Everyone, I am starting this fundraiser for my girlfriend Isabel. Her and I have had an insane 2024. It started out in early January by finding out she is pregnant with our baby. Our overwhelming joy quickly turned to heartache when 2 weeks later Isabel was diagnosed with Stage 2 Classic Hodgkins Lymphoma, a type of blood Cancer.
We were very concerned for Isabels health and what the treatment would mean for our unborn baby. Our oncologist told us that Isabels Chemotherapy treatment has a very small chance of effecting the baby if started in the second trimester of pregnancy. We are relieved by that fact but also we know that Isabel is in for a tough battle. Chemotherapy is hard on the body already let alone while being pregnant.
Isabel will have to leave the job she loves at a charter school on March 8th and start her six month treatment on March 13th. I will also need to take time off of work to support her and take her to appointments. We don't like to ask for help, but without her having an income we are turning to Gofundme to help make ends meet during this time.
All proceeds from this fundraiser will go towards Isabels medical / monthly bills and daily life expenses while going through these six months of chemotherapy treatments. It will also go towards the expenses of having and caring for our baby that's due in August. We can't thank you enough for supporting Isabel and our family during this tough time.
