My wonderful aunty, Peggy Doll, was diagnosed with lung cancer almost 2 years ago. After undergoing chemo, she started immunotherapy and went back to work. However, the toll on her body has become untenable. She is severely immunocompromised and is constantly picking up illnesses that complicate her already uncomfortable side effects and leave her unable to continue working in an office environment. She needs our support as she leaves her beloved office family to find work she can do from home; she needs more opportunities to rest and less chance of sickness that can keep her from providing for her family.
She shares, "Your help with my continuing journey in dealing with cancer would be very much appreciated. I am a cancer patient, and I am hoping to raise money for myself and my husband, Glen, because last week my medical team advised me to quit my job. I reluctantly followed their device; it left me and my husband in a lurch and caused us to need this GoFundMe. It will be used to pay bills, medical copays, food, gas, and other expenses covered by my work income. The problem is that I have become sick again. I caught a bad cold at work. I had been sick often since returning to work 7 months ago, after finishing my chemo and beginning a new life of immunotherapy treatment. I thought getting back to work and getting active would be good for me. I was wrong. I didn't fully realize what immunocompromised really meant. I also have trouble with side effects from my immunotherapy drugs, like nausea, chills, body aches, and other difficulties. I was thrilled whenever I completed an entire week of work. Glen and I need help because our social security cannot cover our expenses. Glen is doing what he can as a graphic artist, but at 77, he doesn't have many opportunities. In the meantime, we would be grateful for any help you can offer."
