Momma J's (Jenny's) Healing Fund

Donation protected
Today, we write to you with a plea for donations to support our remarkable Jenny/Juanita/Momma J.

Back in May Momma J took a courageous step towards reclaiming her life from Leukemia. She was admitted to the hospital where she stayed for nearly 30 days undergoing daily tests and treatments.

June 19th marked the beginning of a new chapter; she was finally released. She spent the following days receiving outpatient treatments, which involved visits to the renowned MD Anderson Cancer Center every three days for hours-long chemotherapy infusions and more tests. However, her journey toward recovery has taken a new turn; she was again hospitalized last night (July 8th). The chemo she needs to battle this debilitating illness overcomes her body's ability to maintain a healthy state. She will likely remain in the hospital for 3-5 days, under medical supervision, while she finishes this latest round of chemo.

The next steps include finding a suitable donor for a crucial stem cell transplant treatment, signifying a pivotal phase in her fight against this illness.

For 3-4 months, following the stem cell transplant treatment, Momma J will require 24/7 care, within 30 minutes of the hospital. During this time, she will be in a hotel room, away from the comforts of her home.

In light of this challenging journey, Momma J needs our unwavering support. Your generous donations will directly contribute to the following crucial areas:

Medical Expenses: The costs associated with outpatient treatment, including chemotherapy infusions, blood draws, and ongoing medical care, can be overwhelming. Your contribution will help alleviate the financial burden Momma J faces during this critical phase.

Accommodation and Support: Being away from the comforts of home can be emotionally and physically taxing. Your donations will help provide comfortable and safe accommodation for Momma J near the hospital, ensuring she has a supportive environment throughout her recovery journey.

Caregiver Support: Momma J will require 24/7 care during her stay near the hospital. Your support will help cover the costs of dedicated caregivers who will provide her with the assistance, comfort, and supervision she needs during this challenging time.

Emotional and Psychological Support: Battling a severe illness can take a toll on one's mental and emotional well-being. Your donations will help provide access to counseling services, support groups, and other resources that will contribute to Momma J's emotional resilience and overall healing.

Momma J's determination to rebuild her life despite these immense challenges is inspiring. Your contribution, regardless of its size, will play a vital role in ensuring she receives the care, support, and resources necessary to overcome these challenges.

To contribute, please visit her go fund me page or contact either Bino or me directly. We also welcome any in-kind donations or volunteer efforts that may be of assistance to Momma J during her treatment and recovery. Something as simple as a good, home-made meal, helps.

Together, we can make a profound impact on Momma J's journey toward healing and provide her with the hope and strength she needs to overcome these obstacles. Thank you for your compassion, generosity, and willingness to make a difference in our Momma J's life.

With all of our heartfelt gratitude,

Momma J's family
