Support Aldo's Battle Against Cancer
Donation protected
Hello! My name is Aldo. I am 29 years of age and I am currently fighting cancer (germ cell carcinoma in the para aortic lymph nodes). I have undergone surgery and now currently receiving Chemotherapy. I am following an aggressive consecutive 5 day Chemo regimen every 2 weeks. To say the least it's been the toughest fight I've ever had to face, both mentally and physically. You can truly never be prepared for something like this and you never know how tough you are until you have to be. I am fighting hard everyday.
I have decided once I overcome this and am able to I will dedicate time to sharing my story and will become an advocate, a guide, and a mentor for other young individuals who are facing the same battle. I want to make a positive impact on others, who like myself are experiencing a difficult time. Sometimes it's hard looking around especially at my age and seeing nobody else who I can truly relate to when it comes to what I am feeling. And that is why it is important for me to help other young individuals feel that they are not alone and somebody else has gone through what they are experiencing. This is no easy feat and having a strong support system is incredibly important to successfully navigate through the journey.
Anyways, I never have been the type of person to ask for help when it comes to practically all things. However, medical bills have been stacking and it's a challenge finding additional resources. I greatly appreciate any type of monetary donation. This will go towards covering all types of medical expenses (appointments, exams, ongoing treatment, etc.) Thank you for reading and for all the support. God Bless.
Sincerely,
Aldo
