Be Apart Of Saving Kristen's Life

My name is Kristen, I am 32 years old and I felt old until I got my recent diagnosis from the doctors. I have three beautiful children who absolutely depend on me and me alone and I can't fail them by letting this cancer be the last of me. I had a super rough last 2 years we will say and I had brushed off the not feeling well and completely having my body shut down on me to receiving the news that I am possibly going to pass away...

Hodgkin lymphoma stage 3 .... that's a huge word that can absolutely take my life, that I took for granted. Hodgkin Lymphona is a relatively aggressive cancer and can quickly spread through the body. Despite this, it's also one of the most easily treated types of cancer if Chemotherapy is done.

Unfortunately I make too much and I have applied like crazy for help I have a portion paid for by insurance but I'm still a huge huge jump away from having what's needed. I hate asking for help and maybe that's what got me into this mess, if I wasn't so stubborn and went to the doctors maybe I'd be not as bad.My treatment plan includes chemotherapy and immunotherapy is given every 2 weeks for 2 to 8 months, depending on how my body can handle it. Chemotherapy is not cheap for starters and I have a copay every chemotherapy session. Im now out of savings and work hasnt been the most reliable due to not being able to just feel okay to work, And I absolutely need to start immediately. I'm only getting weaker and absolutely under the weather most days and that is hurting me financially as well being a single mother with zero support after my Dad's passing. I'm asking if you have anything to help donate towards me winning my life back and so my 3 year old and 12 year old don't lose the only parent they have. I'd forever be grateful I don't wanna not be alive... my babies need me!! Again I hate to even ask but I'm desperate and I don't wanna not be here, I'm too young.

That's the thing about life, it is fragile, precious, unpredictable and each day is a gift, not a given right. If something is making you miserable, you do have the power to change it – in work or love or whatever it may be. Have the guts to change. You don't know how much time you've got on this earth so don't waste it being miserable. Or not surrounded by people who genuinely love you because you dont know truly when you can give your last hug. Conversation, Laugh, touch is. It's not guaranteed and you don't wanna take it for granted
