Please help James with his cancer bills
Donation protected
Hi. This is my husband, James. My name is JoAnn. First of all, thank you for taking the time to read this. This is his story. He was diagnosed with a facial tumor that started on his nose. The cancer surgeon said it was a very aggressive cancer. The cancer ate up most of his nose, including bone. He was given chemo for 1 year, but it didn't stop all of the cancer. This is when the decision was made for him to have surgery. The Dr. Said he got 98 percent of it, but the remaining 2 percent is extremely close to his left eye. Three weeks after his first surgery, he had a second surgery. In this surgery, the plastic surgeon removed the large amount of skin on his nose, and basically rebuilt it. His first surgery was in March of this year, and was an 8 hour operation,and the second surgery was in April of this year, and it was a 2 hour operation. He has an upcoming MRI , and a consultation with a radiation doctor to see about the cancer by his eye. We did not want to have to ask for help, but we are at the point where we are tapped out. He was out of work for almost 2 months, not including all the time off for his many,many doctor appointments. He just went back to work about 3 weeks ago. We used what little we had saved, maxed out our credit cards and every penny of the stimulus towards his medical bills. Between his cancer surgeon, plastic surgeon, PCP, cancer doctor, hospital bills, lab work, tests, and now a radiation doctor, we are drowning. He still has a rough road ahead of him, and he has already been through so much. There is a chance he may end up losing his left eye, but I pray to the good Lord above it doesn't come to that. He sure is tough, and brave ! Any money raised will be used to pay the medical and hospital bills that we currently have,and all of the ones that are still coming in. He has insurance through his employer, but it doesn't pay everything. Getting help would be such a blessing. If you aren't able to donate, I want to thank you, again, for taking the time to read this and please keep James in your prayers. If you could share this, it would be much appreciated. I know times are hard for a lot of us, and we truly appreciate any help. Thank you again. God bless.
