Donation protected
Hi, my name is Marian Gutiérrez I was born in Venezuela and I currently live in Orlando, Florida. I have and AMAZING two year old daughter name Mya (pronounce Mia). I was diagnosed on February 2015 with stage III Thyroid Cancer. On March 17, 2015 I had my first surgery in which a 7cm tumor and 19 Lymph Nodes (9 tested positive for Cancer) were removed from both the right and left side of my neck. In addition, my surgeon had to scrape cancer off my vocal cords and some nerves. After my surgery I was in the hospital for 4 days and at home for 3 weeks.
My recovery has been very rough (to say the least). After my Thyroid was removed my body has gone through horrible changes such as fatigue, blurry vision, headaches, lack of energy, etc. Simple things such as brushing my hair have become a daily challenge for me. After seeing my Oncologist and explaining to him my daily struggles he order me to have a series of exams done. Soon after I was inform that my Cancer had spread and that I was going to start radiation treatment inmidiately and possibly undergo more surgery.
Since my journey started my family and I have spent $16,000 (ALL of our savings). My treatment is very long and expensive and as of today I just don't have the funds to continue treatment.
I have an amazing family whom have been very supportive in this journey but reality is that they can't do this alone. For that reason I (WE) need your help.
THANK YOU ALL!
God bless you!
