Anyone who knows Yasuko, our mom, knows how genuinely kind, patient, selfless, strong, and hardworking she is. Many people have commented how she is the kindest, most angelic person they know, and it’s true! Our mom always thinks of others first even when she herself is going through challenges as well. She’s a good listener and counselor to all her friends and family and is quick to make friends with her infectious smile and spirit. Despite all the challenges she has encountered in her life, we have never once heard her complain.
Unfortunately, in February of this year our mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. Hopefully it was caught early, and with medical treatment we pray for a full recovery.
As you can imagine, this has come as a major shock to us all. This unexpected news has been very difficult for our mom and our family, including financially as medical costs in the United States are extremely expensive, and even with insurance the deductible and out of pocket is high.
To make things even more challenging, our dad’s position at his employer was suddenly eliminated in July of 2020 due to the effects of Covid-19. He has been very busy applying for positions and interviewing with many companies since then, but he has not been able to secure a new good paying job, yet.
As he continues to search, our mom has taken on various extra jobs to help support the family. However, with the cancer treatments and hospital visits, bills are adding up fast and financial resources are quickly disappearing.
On top of that, while our mom goes through the required medical procedures, treatment, and recovery process, she will have to take substantial time off work, which will basically bring any income to a halt.
Our family has always tried to be as self-reliant as we can despite the unforeseen challenges of life, and it is very humbling and difficult to ask for help. However, this unexpected situation has left us little choice but to reach out to the kindness of others and ask for any financial help people are willing and able to contribute to off-set medical costs.
We know this has been a challenging time for everyone, and we are incredibly grateful for any help that anyone can provide no matter how small.
