My name is Linda and my husband is Raul Torres. Our 16 yr old daughter Myra was diagnosed with T-Cell/ Lymphoma, a form of cancer on June 16th, 2020. She was taken to the hospital for a swollen face and neck. We took her 3 times to doctors and the doctors kept telling us that it was an allergic reaction. We knew it was more than that!!!! On the 4th visit to the doctors and the doctor seeing Myra's  face and neck realized that something was not right and ran test and did blood work. That's when we found out that she had a mass the size of a credit card in her chest and got the devastated news! That Myra had Lymphoma. Our hearts dropped and we were in shock. Our Myra is beautiful,smart and strong girl. she has an amazing big heart, she has a smile that lights up the room. loves to be around people,very outgoing, loves to dance and listen to music. She has been in the hospital for 26 days going through chemotherapy. Right now she is not eating as her taste buds are not working because of the chemo. She has lost 20lbs and is in a lot of pain physically and emotionally. It's been very difficult for her because she is not able to see her family (especially her brothers and sister) and her doggy Luna which she misses very much. As parents it's been very hard for us as we are unable to work so that we can be here for our daughter. Financially it's been a real struggle for us to try and make ends meet. We travel back and forth to the hospital, me and my husband taking turns with being with her at the hospital and plus taking care of our children at home. We are very grateful for all who read our story and who are able to help. The funds donated will help us tremendously for the bills we are left with in the midst of these hard times as we are not able to continue to work so that we can be there for our daughter Myra. Any and every gift donated will be a big blessing to us. Gift cards, gas cards, food cards especially prayers are welcome as well. We ask that you keep our precious Myra in your thoughts and prayers. As parents it's the most difficult thing to hear that your child has cancer. We are trying our best to stay strong for Myra so please keep us in your prayers as well. Thank you for you time and donations. God Bless you Sincerely Raul and Linda Torres
