Melody's cancer relief

Donation protected
Hi everyone I am asking for your help for my niece Melody and her family her Husband Fernando her two beautiful little girls Val and Vivi's. My niece and nephew had moved to Las Vegas a little over 1 year ago and they were doing good. Both were working and they were about to get a place and then Covid hit. First Melody lost her job then Fernando so they had to move back to San Diego. A couple of months after they moved back Melody started feeling sick. She thought she had allergies she tried all the over the counter medications and nothing worked. She decided to go to urgent care by this time she couldn't breathe from her nose. They said she had a sinus infection treated her with antibiotics for about 1 month she didn't get any better she actually got worse and started feeling pain and had some type of growth starting to show on the inside of her nose. They sent her to a Ear, Nose and throat specialist and after a cat scan, biopsy and MRI and pet scan they told her it was a very aggressive stage 3 Cancer. Without treatment she would last at the most 1 yr and with treatment she could last about 5 years. She started her first round of Chemo the second week of November and she was pretty sick the following week. She goes for her second round this weekend coming up and we were told that she will feel it alot more this time. Her immune system will start getting weaker and weaker with every round of treatment.  We are needing to get them their own little place where she wont expose herself to Covid and anything that could affect her treatment.  Also we need to cover the extra expenses they will be having during this process of treatment. Any little bit will help even if you could share that would be greatly appreciated.
I thought I should add that they are living with me and my boys right now and do to the type of work I do its risky for her while going through chemotherapy to be living there. If there's a apartment you may know of locally that would be willing to work with the deposit it would also be very appreciated. 
She has the following type of Cancer:
Sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC) is a rare and highly malignant tumor that occurs in the nasal cavity and/or paranasal sinuses. Prognosis is poor despite multimodality treatment. Currently, there is no optimal standard of treatment, partially due to a lack of research defining the biology of such tumors.
