Nancy's Stem Cell Transplant
Donation protected
Hi all,
My cousin Casey and I wanted to put together this Gofundme page for my mom to help with her medical costs due to her stem cell transplant.
As many of you know my mom, Nancy Hopkins, received a stem cell transplant last August for Myelodysplastic Syndrome which is a bone cancer. Unfortunately, in February, she found out through her bone marrow biopsy results that the stem cell transplant failed and her cells started to take over again. She was notified by her doctor that she would need to have another stem cell transplant. She was admitted to OHSU on Monday 5/21/18 to start the conditioning for her second transplant that she received on May 25th.
Due to the change in her health, she had to quit her job because of the long healing process that stem cell transplants involve. She cannot apply for Medicare for 2 years, and therefore she is having to endure the costs of COBRA. We are asking for donations to help with the cost of her COBRA premiums since it is very expensive. Any little bit helps and is greatly appreciated from all of the family.
Thank you for your continued prayers, positive vibes, texts, phone calls and support!
