Help me to make this easier for my wife Janese
Donation protected
When I met my wife back in 08 she was diagnosed as terminally ill and given months to live. For me hearing that was a brutal bit of info and shocked me. I fought and fought to make sure I did everything in my power to insure she had the best odds. What do you know it’s 13 years later and she is still ticking. Over the years life has had its fair share of downs but I’ve tried my best to be optimistic.
She has an Auto immune disorder called Myasthenia Gravis which affects all smooth muscle tissue. My wife is drug resistant so for drugs or medicine that typically work for people who have this disorder, they do not work with her but can easliy push her into a crisis with her illness.
A few years ago issues started showing up, very temperamental issues that would show up one week and disappear the next. The episodes would simply exacerbate her illness, which can easily make a good week or month a very rough one.
Finally a few weeks ago we caught this issue mid track befor it could hide itself again and she has been diagnosed with cancer. So three weeks ago she was diagnosed and tommorow (2/15/21) she is starting chemo and radiation. Last week was pretty much all spent getting prepared for these coming weeks and getting everything setup.
Fortunately I have family is who is able to help get her to her treatments so i can continue to work. My wife has said many times that she wants to start a Go Fund me and I immediately shot it down and said no. She then said that by me not even asking is pushing people who want to help away. The funds would be used for bills to help as we go through this process.
Life has always seemed to through curveballs, everytime something seems to be going well something rears its head. As much as I dont want to ask for help, my wife has asked that I do this to relieve some pressure. If your able to and willing id much appreciate anything your able to donate.
I appreciate everyones kind words and thoughts, stay safe and keep your family close
