As many of my family and friends know, I have been recently diagnosed again and treated for a second bought of breast cancer. I went through breast cancer and treatment for the first time just a little over 2 years ago and since then have not been able to fully acheive paying for those medical expenses.   I recently underwent surgery for a bi-lateral masectomy and have accrued additional medical expenses for pre-surgical testing as well as surgery. The medical expenses were only covered in part by my health insurance coverage which has left me with unexpected medical expenses which are above and beyond my ability to pay.
My recovery time will be lengthy due to the extensiveness of my surgey and I will be out of work for a long period of time. Since I am unable to work full time, I will only receive disablilty pay which is much lower than my normal pay making it very difficult for me to afford daily living expenses and not possible to pay any of my medical expenses. I am anticipating that my current chemotherapy treatment will be similar to my first experience which left me unable to work due to be extreme fatigue and short term concetration/memory loss for a longer period of time than anticipated.

The donated funds will go towards paying for my medical expenses and to help with daily living expenses which far exceed the disabilty insurance I receive.

I beat this aweful disease the first time and now for a second time with the love and support from my family and friends.
 Any help that you can provide is truly appreciated.

With Love,
Michele
