I’m starting this fundraiser because my lymphoma has relapsed, and I need help covering the cost of treatment and getting through the months ahead. I need to come up with $4,200 for my chemotherapy deductible, and I will be starting rescue chemotherapy that is expected to last 4 months.

During this time, my doctor does not want me to work. That means I am facing not only the deductible for chemotherapy, but also the loss of the work income I usually rely on to cover everyday living costs. My Social Security benefits do help, but they do not cover all of my basic needs.

Your support will help me pay the chemotherapy deductible and keep up with the basic expenses I normally covered through work while I am in treatment. Having that help would take some of the financial pressure off so I can focus on getting through these next 4 months of chemotherapy.

If you are able to give, any amount would mean a lot to me. If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser would also be a big help. Thank you for supporting me during this difficult time.
