Helping Zachariah

The five-year survival rate after recurrence of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is about 20%. The four-year survival rate is 12%, 21%, and 41% for those who relapse less than 6 months, between 6 and 12 months, and more than 12 months after completion of upfront therapy.

Zachariah was diagnosed at age 17, after failure of his pediatrician to properly diagnose. The NP seeing him reported it as a ganglion cyst and of no concern 2021. After delay, the 2/2022 diagnosis revealed not only that is was cancer but with distant metastasis. He has exceeded expectations in life expectancy and completed all treatments available. He is doing palliative radiation and seeking involvement in a Baylor clinical trial to donate what’s remaining of his life to a cure. Hope 4 Cancer centers offers a promise of potential hope and longevity in a treatment plan outside of the US, which insurance will not pay. The cost is $54,000, I am unable to get a loan, I’ve maxed out all cards, and go fund me is all I have. Please share. I don’t care if it’s $1 or $1000, help me give him hope. Cash app donations are accepted as well $urchangemakesmine. He’s on board with the request. Insurance has paid over $80,000 a day for chemo, this is small in comparison, but they won’t. Please, I’m asking as his mother. Allow me the opportunity to do this one last attempt for him.
