Support Carrie's Battle Against Stage 4 Cancer

This is a rough one as we try to keep all of our social media posts positive. However, sometimes situations arise like this one that is serious and very, very close to home and our hearts. My dear little sister, Carrie, developed a cough a few months ago, but thought it was something that would clear up with OTC meds. A few weeks ago she went in for a doctors appointment and they had a chest X-Ray done. Before she made it back to work, the doctor’s office told her to proceed to the nearest hospital and not to pass Go. From there she was immediately admitted into the ER then the ICCU, where they discovered that large amounts of fluid had accumulated in both her lungs and around her heart. Surgeries were performed to install tubes to relieve the immense pressure the fluid was causing (including a collapsed lung). The medical staff worked tirelessly to find out what was causing it. To all of our horror she was diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer that has metastasized in her heart (she is not a smoker, btw). The doctors have worked tirelessly to develop a treatment plan that is going to include an aggressive treatment of Chemotherapy, and other therapies to help her fight this ugly disease. She has faced this with unparalleled Strength and Grace and Faith in God, but now she and her family are faced with the ugly reality of mounting hospital bills and other costs associated with repeat trips to the hospital, lost income and other costs. This will be a difficult treatment that will keep her from her beloved job, and will reduce her ability to handle basic household chores. At this time we are assisting in setting up a Go Fund Me for her to help offset some to the costs associated with this, and the other unforeseen things that will absolutely occur during this time. We want her focus to be on beating this cancer and nothing else! If you cannot donate, please share this post. If you cannot share the post, please pray for Carrie and our family. Thank you.
