Hi my name is Lynne and I am a pet sitter who boards dogs in my home. This year I was experiencing a lot of hip pain which was initially diagnosed as needing a new hip. Near the time of my surgery in September more tests revealed that I have bone cancer which made the surgery very extensive. I had the successful surgery to remove the cancer in my pelvis and replace my hip on November 14. I am currently in a rehab center. I haven’t been able to work since July and when I get home will not be able to work for at least three months . I have no income except for a small amount of Social Security
