Medical Bills
Donation protected
I am a single mom of two, ages 6 and 3, and I've been recently diagnosed with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma breast cancer. The treatment process is slightly different for my very aggressive cancer: I'll have chemo first, and then double mastectomy surgery. This treatment approach is beneficial in that the doctors will be able to SEE the effect of the chemotherapy on the actual tumor, before they cut it out of my body.
I'm going to do my best to stay at work as long as I can, but my medication expense is going to be huge, regardless of my income:
My first round of chemo pre-medications is $300 (I'll have 8 treatments, at least; more if the first chemotherapy mixture does not work on the tumor), and each visit I make will cost copays of $50 (doctor visit; at least 8), or $300 (surgeries; I'll have at least 3, with lab-workups on all of them).
I can't hope for more than to live through this and raise my little ones to be happy and healthy.
I appreciate any support or help you can give!
Thank you!!
