Madre's End of Life Fund

Donation protected
As most of you already know our mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year. As we’ve watched our mother go through different rounds of chemotherapy we have had to learn to cope with our mom's cancer and the challenges that come with all the side effects. Treatment after treatment our mother's body has become very weak but her will has become much stronger. Treatments have failed to eradicate her cancer.

At this time, we find ourselves making our mother the most comfortable that we possibly can. Ordinary things like a cough have us running to the emergency room. There is so much no one tells you about cancer.  We wish we could say "My mom has lived a full life" but now that she’s in for the fight of her life. We see her toughness every day. Even though we can see that she’s physically weak, nothing has broken her spirit. This disease won’t diminish her will to fight. Yet we all know the truth.

Fighting cancer is a constant, a daily part of our life now. Since our mother’s cancer has advanced we have to plan our lives around doctors and hospitals’ visits. This has caused extreme hardship to our families. We have decided to open a go fund me in an effort to help our mother continue getting the help she needs and arrange for her funeral expenses.  We do not know how much time she has left but we definitely don't want her to worry about a thing.

Thank you in advance for your well wishes and help.

Muchos de ustedes ya estan enterados de que el año pasado nuestra Mamá fue diagnosticada con cancer del pancreas.  Hemos visto como nuestra Mamá ha pasado por varias quimioterapias y nosotros hemos tenido que aprender a enfrentarnos a su cancer, los desafios que vienen con el y todos los efectos secundarios.  Despues de tantos tratamientos el cuerpo de nuestra Mamá se ha debilitado, pero su voluntad ha incrementado.  Los tratamientos han fallado en erradicar su cancer.

En este momento estamos haciendo lo mas que podemos para que nuestra Mamá este lo mas comoda posible. Situaciones ordinarias como una tos nos llevan corriendo a la sala de emergencias.  Hay tantas cosas que nadie te informa acerca del cancer.  Nos gustaria poder decir "mi Mamá ha vivido una vida completa" pero ahora que esta en la pelea por su vida, hemos visto dia con dia lo fuerte que es.  Aunque hemos visto que fisicamente ella esta debil, nada ha aquebrantado su espiritu.  Esta enfermedad no ha disminuido su voluntad para seguir peleando.  Sin embargado, todos sabemos la verdad.

La batalla contra el cancer es constante, y una parte diaria de nuestra vida.  Debido a que el cancer de nuestra Mamá ha avanzado, hemos tenido que planear nuestras vidas en torno a las visitas al doctor y al hospital.  Esto ha causado una dificultad extrema a nuestras familias.  Hemos decidido abrir esta pagina para recaudar fondos para ayudar a nuestra Mamá, para que siga obteniendo la ayuda que necesita y planear para los gastos de su funeral.  No sabemos cuanto tiempo le queda pero definitivamente no queremos que se preocupe por nada.

Gracias de antemano por sus buenos deseos y su ayuda.
