My name is Jay. I’m 25, almost 26 years old. I love art, traveling, and being around the people I love.
I’ve been having health issues that have been ongoing. I have Hashimoto's disease, which puts me at risk of thyroid cancer and other problems. I’ve had two lumps on my neck: one on the back of my neck that has been present for more than 6 years, and one under my chin/neck area that I recently discovered last year. The lump has gotten bigger recently and is causing me constant pain.
My doctor said I could get a biopsy, but with my current insurance, it will still cost me $1,700-$2,000 out of pocket. On February 18th, I will be losing all insurance once I turn 26 since I’m currently on my family’s private insurance. I haven’t found any help through that hospital and am currently being ignored in my attempts to get on new insurance and find any programs to help pay for the biopsy.
I understand these are hard times for everyone. I wouldn’t make this if I was able to handle all this myself. I’m just in a panic, and I know making a GoFundMe to at least get some help is better than not trying at all. Thank you so much to anyone who donates; I will be so unbelievably grateful. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I appreciate it so much. ❤️
