Nita's medical care
Donation protected
Hello, and greetings; thank you for taking the time to read this post:
My name is Shareen. I am organizing this fundraiser on behalf of Nita, my mother. My warrior goddess of a mother is currently going through neuroendocrine cancer that has metastasized to the liver. This is now her third cancer, and it is stage four. Her premium insurance has denied the only treatment that could extend her life. A targeted radiation treatment that has a success rate of 81%. Out of pocket cost for her treatment alone is $450,000, which doesn't include travel and caregivers. We are still fighting for an appeal to help cover the costs. However, much of it will be at the expense of the patient. I am reaching out in hopes that we can raise some funds to help pay for her treatment. She is vibrant, energetic, kind-hearted, optimistic, and a beacon of light for me and many others. I am reaching out for help because she is a small business owner that does not have the means to pay for something like this. I believe in the power of people and community to help support each other. Any financial support will be a tremendous help if this resonates with you.
If for any reason, there are funds that go beyond our need, they will be returned to the donor or can be sent to a charity at your request.
I appreciate your time and thank you for your consideration and support.
