Rediet's Battle With Cancer
Donation protected
Rediet is a caring young lady who just graduated with a degree in Echo Sonography after struggling through many hardships.
After being offered a new job in her field, she got the devastating news that was diagnosed with stage 4 Diffuse B Cell Lymphoma. It is a very aggressive form of cancer.
This disease has impacted Rediet's physical, spiritual, and emotional wellbeing. Due to COVID-19, she has had to stay in the hospital for a week at a time alone as the hospital policy will not allow family and friends to visit patients. During this whole ordeal, she has been in and out of the hospital for the past several weeks. We have been calling her everyday to try to make up for the fact that we cannot be there. She is in the hospital now and is mostly restricted to her hospital bed as this disease has manifested in her chest, and thus affects her heart, throat, and lungs. Her fever and nausea comes and goes daily.
As a result, Rediet had to turn down her job offer, thus making it impossible for her to pay for her medical bills and her personal expenses. At this time, she is currently undergoing treatment which is set to delay her entry back into her life about 6 months, if not more.
She has worked to change her insurance provider, plead with her insurance company and creditors, and even enrolled in a study that will experimentally treat her cancer free of charge. However, after taking multiple tests to diagnose her illness, her Medical bills from her time in the hospital have grown to $2500+, and her personal expenses (Credit Card, Car Note, food etc) have grown to over $13000 after spending time in the hospital.
In addition, she let us know that after speaking with her insurance company that she will have additional medical bills to the ones mentioned above.
This campaign is to help cover all of these expenses.
There is so much more to learn over this next period of time, but now is the time for action. Once more info is available, it will be shared here on this page.
Because Rediet is not able to work, funds are needed immediately. She asked me, Rediet's sister in law, to help set up this campaign because she has been in and out of the hospital. Funds will be transferred directly to Rediet's account to pay the things above and the funds are currently being collected by me. I live in WV.
If you are able to donate, please consider contributing to this campaign. Any amount helps and will be greatly appreciated, both by Rediet and the Shiferaw Family.
