Hi, hope all is well. First, thank you for taking the time to read a little bit of my story. As some of you know, I battled breast cancer 2020-2022.
I was diagnosed again in August 2023. Now, metastatic breast cancer has spread to my bones. It is excruciating; the doctors are experimenting with pain management, trying to figure out the correct doses to help me manage. I can't afford to miss Chemo, but if the pain is not controlled, they must cancel it. It is like starting over with Chemo schedules, etc., and delayed Chemo is unfortunately not a good outcome for me as a Cancer Metastatic.
BUT GOD has the first & last word. AMEN.
Bone cancer is spread, but only all over bones, no organs (thank you, LORD), primarily on my lower back, right hip, thigh, inner and outer, knees, leg, and scapula. My left side also has some issues, but mainly, it's my right. This being said, I need assistance lifting my leg to get in the shower. I have been hospitalized once for syncope trying to get in and out of the shower; I overworked my body trying to do the little things I didn't realize were taking so much out of me. The other two times were because of an incapacitating bone pain. Not being able to get out of bed and moving slowly to accommodate literally next to my bed is heart-wrenching for me and my daughter, who's my primary caregiver in the middle of the night, watching me unable to move.
The reason for this fundraiser is to help pay for a walk-in shower. Hospital and everyday bills are there as expected, but these unforeseen expenses are overwhelming. And I need help. Being unable to raise my leg to get in the shower is heartbreaking and takes a toll mentally.
Any little bit will help me & my kids with this. I have faith that GOD will get me through this, and I will share my testimony with you all. .
“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.”
