Stand By Keri: Cancer Struggle & Financial Woes
I am starting this GoFundMe because my mom, Keri, has been struggling with Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer for over a year. She works as much as she can, and I have been trying to work more hours. We had been loaned $2000 a couple of years back and were told to give it back when we could, but unfortunately, we have to give it back as soon as possible now. We struggle to get things paid each month and are behind on almost every bill. We are in desperate need of anything to help us get out of this situation again. We hate asking for money; it's the most uncomfortable and degrading feeling, but we are in such dire need right now. There is a risk of having my mom move into a more sustainable living environment that she can afford, but I wouldn't be able to move with her. She also wouldn't be able to have her dog. I need my mom; she is the most important person to me in the entire world, and I want to spend every moment I can with her to make the most out of the time we have left. I know my mom wants to spend her time with her dog, too. I can't imagine not living with my mom during this time. Truly, any little bit counts; we struggle to even get food in the house outside of pantries. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
