Joeys fight against Amyloidosis!
Donation protected
Many of you may not know this but my best friend, supporter, back bone and most importantly love of my life has been diagnosed with an extremely rare blood disease called Amyloidosis. From the beginning we were told he actually had cancer of the eye and that we would be able to get through it most likely with multiple surgeries that could remove this beast. Through much research and testings and seeing one of "the best doctors out there" for this type of issue, a biopsy results came back and we found out about this disease that many have never even heard of. We have began doing more research and a ton more testing to further go hopefully a cure. This is actually a blood disease that is potentially cancerous that begins to attack your vital organs from the inside out. There is not much research on it due to the fact of how rare it is which is why this has been such a long process. There are two types AA and AL. Now.. we are waiting for blood results to come back to figure out which it is so we can kick it in the ass (on the positive side).
This has not only been hard on Joeys family and my family but most importantly Joey himself. He needs all the support, love and prayers he could possibly have.
That being said, the medical bills for all of this research have starting coming in and even though he has insurance, they are still extremely high and he is struggling. He has been having to take multiple days off every week for appointments and his copays are crazy high for these specialty doctors and it's a weekly fight for him. Joeys family and my self have been trying to help out as much as possible but there is only so much we can do. If there is even a dollar you could spare it would help out enormously.
Thank you for your time and support and BE AWARE!
I will post updates as we find out more along the way.
