Kristin's Brain Cancer Journey to LIFE!

Hi there. My name is Debra and my daughter, Kristin, has brain cancer. Kristin is currently prepping for surgery on February 22, 2023, to remove a tumor in her right parietal lobe. Until recently, she has been symptom-free, but now the tumor is likely growing as she has started to experience seizures and has been placed on medication for these.

Kristin is also looking at expensive integrative therapies that can help to reduce cancer symptoms and effects. These treatments are not covered by insurance and some are not located in the United States. Unfortunately, Kristin does not usually go to the doctor. Therefore, she chose an insurance plan with a high-deductible for both in and out of network and most of those funds for her HSA were depleted last year with a car accident we were hoping to put behind us.

Kristin is looking to the Lord to guide her in her treatment plan and help to heal her of this cancer so that she can stay and raise her two children and stay with her husband and help manage the farm. In addition to the day-to-day expenses of these therapies, there are travel expenses, food and dietary expenses and more that will be required in an effort to help beat this cancer!

Anything you can provide will be greatly helpful as we work together as a family to help beat this and keep her alive!
