Hello, my name is Abby Simonds. I live with my brother in Noble, Oklahoma. My mother passed away due to COVID in 2021. My dad passed last September. My life has been a roller coaster of grief and bad luck.

Last year around this time, I began to feel extremely sick, like I had the flu. Then a large mass developed in my armpit on the lymph node, my kidneys were failing, and I had a severe case of pancreatitis. I missed the last semester of my senior year, and I can't attend college until the cancer is gone and the pain goes away.

I've been struggling to keep my bills paid, but they have piled up and I'm so worried about my future. I'm about a month behind on everything. Anything will help, even just kind words. Thank you so much.
