Support My Story, Support My Health

When I started my autobiographical blog my goal was to inspire others by sharing my current Cancer journey, plus it's therapeutic for me. If you have checked it out already, hopefully you are entertained by my story, but even more so inspired! My blog has been put on hold the past couple of months as extreme fatigue & very unpleasant side effects have made it to difficult to continue it at this mind. It has been a grind battling this disease. Twelve rounds of chemo infusions in Boerne, Texas, which was an hour and a half round trip twice a month. Next came M-F radiation treatments plus continued chemo in San Antonio, a more than a 2 hour round trip. All of that totals 68 chemo/radiation treatments over 6 months. Very grueling considering the side effects which continues to linger. Needless to say all of yhs has created a huge financial strain for me & D'Anna. Now, after the end of almost eight months of treatments, I will likely have to have 2 surgical, procedures with hospital stays in San Antonio, which would include an ileostomy that would require me to wear an ileostomy bag for 6 weeks Yep, this is a marathon battle. Though I am on Medicare (and Social Security) there are still many expenses not covered financially, already into the thousands.. My wife D'Anna is still working a 40 hour a week job, but it is impossible for me to work for the foreseeable future. Between the expenses associated with my treatments & the expense of daily living, it is stretching us beyond our limits. I hate just asking for a handout, so I figured that I could offer something in return that you can enjoy by recounting my incredible, but improbable life story. If so, I would appreciate, if you feel led to do so, donating whatever amount you feel comfortable with to show you enjoy hearing about my crazy life! Or even if you don't follow My Blog we would still appreciate your help. ALL will be greatly appreciated! The amount listed as a goal is strictly arbitrary, but not above what we could use. Keep in mind GoFundMe takes 2.9% plus $.30 to process each transaction. I am so blessed too have so many wonderful friend & a great family. Sincere thanks & God bless you for your love & support! https://www.the-improbable-life-of-a-regular-guy.com/
