Jacob’s Fight Against Testicular Cancer
Donation protected
Hey guys, for those who don’t know me, my name is Jacob Gorski. I’m 25, I’m a premed in college and work as a medical assistant. Sometime last year I had a lump appear on my testicle, and had to delay surgery due to me not having health insurance. When the time came the tumor had shrunk so much that my doctor didn’t want think it was cancerous. 3 months later in April this year, suddenly my supraclavicular lymph nodes had swollen suddenly and painfully. I was admitted to the ER and after a biopsy and some scans they determined I have stage 3b non Seminoma testicular cancer. Now I start my journey through chemotherapy.
I started this fundraiser because the chemotherapy requires me to go in for 5 days of my week every 3 weeks taking a lot of time away from work. This isn’t even considering how many days I’ll miss at work due to the amount of nausea and fatigue I will have due to the chemotherapy.
I would appreciate any at all donations. While my insurance is paying for a lot of these bills, they will not help me with sperm freezing payments, and I still have lots of medical debt racked up ontop of all the bills I already have to pay.
