Overwhelmed by medical necessities
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Angie. Two years ago I was diagnosed with liver cancer, iron overload, and impending end stage liver disease. We treated the cancer and are holding it at bay for the moment. I have been administered and passed all the testing that was needed to be considered eligible for a transplant program. Everything looks great except my liver. I am now actively placed on the transplant list.
My dad also needs surgery for a duel hernia in fear of strangulation.
I hope to raise the funds to aid with medical treatments, aftercare and related unexpected expenses.
I will be having to secure lodging close to the hospital for several weeks post transplant . I will need twenty hour careand will be requiring daily labwork and tests during that time period. My home is 75 miles away.
My dad will also need someone to assist with some things at home while he's recovering . Sadly my step mom passed away unexpectedly five days ago.
As much as I would love to think of myself as a super hero, I am not. However I do have a job that I absolutely love and would like to get back to as soon as possible after surgery. I want to resume working and helping my family. Thank you.
