Mom w/ multiple pituitary tumors on radiation

Donation protected
My daughter Cathelina Reyes just had her 1st baby in Nov 2018. During her pregnancy she complained to her OBGYN about constant headaches and dizzy spells. He never did test/blood work. She had a tuff delivery and had to get an emergency c-section. After giving birth her symptoms got worse, severe headaches, nausea, vomiting and loss of vision. She collapsed at work in January and was rushed to the hospital. She had an MRI of the head where they found 2 large tumors, one the size of a lemon at the frontal part of the brain and one smaller on her brain stem.  She was admitted and prepped for surgery. 80% of the front tumor was removed and sent to pathology. Cat was released to follow up for radiation treatment to reduce the stem cell tumor. They refuse to operate because it is too risky, her vision, balance and speech could be impaired. Cat went back into the hospital twice since with trouble swallowing, another MRI was done and was found to have multiple tumors in her neck and spine. And now she is also having seizures/tremors, which are triggering anxiety attacks. She just started he Proton Radiation Therapy.  We both had to stop working, Cat needs care around the clock and we are asking for any financial help.
