Support Phallyn's Fight Against Cancer
Donation protected
My name is Phallyn. My life turned upside down when I was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer. I cried my heart out! The first thing that came to my mind was my children. Who would be there for us? What will I do? I can't leave my babies! Then I realized I have to fight! Through all the appointments and preparations for chemotherapy, I have been pushing, praying, and focusing on my healing journey.
But then I started to think more about my children. I found out in April 2024, right before school ended. I had plans for them for the summer, now they are ruined. I still want my children to live happily as children, despite what life has thrown at me. Not to mention, this time last year we were experiencing homelessness. I lost everything but slowly started gaining things back. The next thing after finding a place was buying a car. Well, that's on hold once again because of my income decreasing as I fight this fight. Two incomes have turned to one and I have chemotherapy every Tuesday and by day 3, I feel terrible. By day 5, I still manage to work my part-time job 3 days a week, which by the way, I have no short-term disability or benefits.
I still have been pushing but I see my bills getting backed up as every week gets harder for me and no matter how much money I put on each bill, it's still not enough, not to mention my rent went up. I'm working on resources and trying to get all the assistance I need but nobody has funds right now and I don't know what else to do! And just to think is time for Myrical to start middle school and Jahmari to start High school that means school supplies , school clothes I wasn’t able to buy any other that stuff last year now here we are again . Going into new chapter is their life and still having to worry about their mom’s health is a lot for them as well . This is really hard to process and go through. My anxiety and depression kick in, causing pain to my back and chest. I turn to prayer, coloring, walking, and thinking of master plans. I thought of creating paintings along the way, making hats, t-shirts, and even baking to try to keep busy and stay positive but not to overwhelm myself in the next 6 months.
Currently as of November I am at jeapordy of loosing my place I did this go fund me in hopes that if it came to this I would be prepared. Well it has ! It has been my biggest struggle to get my rent paid . I have nowhere else for my children and I to go , I worked so hard to get this place for us when we were homeless last year. I would loose everything if this happens , how do explain to my children that we’re homeless, all of their belongings are gone , change their school, I just think about this everyday . I don’t want to see anybody’s stuff put out more or less ours . Not to mention the holidays is coming up this would just be terrible . I have reached out to every resource some have been helpful some haven’t and they won’t continue to help it’s a one time thing .I'm asking for help to get me and my children through this. No amount is too small and I appreciate all who have supported me this far and all the continued support! Also if you find it your heart and want to donate another way here’s my cash app $PhallynB
