Let’s Help Out Sara During This Rough Time

Let’s help Sara Gerstmayr during this rough time. Life is hard and Covid-19 has made things much harder. Losing someone so close to you, grieving the loss and keeping it together for your kids and then getting cancer? It’s too much. No one should have to go through any of this. This is why we need to help out Sara. She has not been able to collect disability but is still applying. Anything you can donate will be appreciated. It will help with bills, rent, medical expenses, food and the upcoming holiday season.  It’s times like these that we needto help one another. This was taken from her Facebook page:

I don’t usually post too much about my personal shit. But today is the day. A little over a year ago, Carl died. The person that I had dedicated my life to for almost a decade. It was one of the hardest times in my life. Trying to grieve while helping my children through their own grief. In the meantime, my doctor took me off of my antidepressants. Awesome timing. That was May. Fast forward to September. I find out I have tongue cancer. Ok. Fucking great. 4 surgeries. Fine. December through February, radiation. Not just on my tongue. On my neck, too. I lost a total of 90 pounds. 60 of witch was just from radiation, in a 3 months time span. May. PET scan. There’s some activity. But docs want to wait until August for a follow up PET scan. August. Omg. We have to schedule surgery now. Today. Great. This time, not only do they have to remove more. They have to take a graft from my arm to reconstruct my mouth. And another graft from my leg to cover the arm. I’ve been in and out of the hospital for months. Currently I’m undergoing chemo and radiation for 7 weeks. I’ve been unable to care for my children and pets. I’ve been unable to work. And COVID. Fuck COVID. Just one more piece of shit to add to the pile. In the process I’ve lost people that I thought were my closest friends. Awesome. Great. And now I have to be on lockdown. So I will not be seeing anyone for the next couple of months. Super. How’s everyone else’s 2020??? Fuck this year. Fuck cancer.
