My name is Hellen, and I am currently battling cancer and undergoing chemo, along with COPD and asthma, and fluid buildup around my heart and lungs. Complications from all the health issues require me to stay on oxygen every day. I require 6 to 8 liters of oxygen and need a battery life of 4-5 hours. The tank I have now is extremely heavy, and because of that, I can't move around freely or manage simple daily tasks without struggling.

Unfortunately, my insurance will not cover a smaller, portable oxygen tank—one that would allow me to stay mobile, safe, and independent. I am reaching out for help to purchase a lightweight unit so I can regain some of the freedom that my health has taken from me.

Any support, shares, or kindness during this time means more to me than I can put into words. Thank you for seeing me, supporting me, and standing with me through this journey.
