Please Help My Sister Myra Beat Cancer

*UPDATE: Directly sending to zelle [phone redacted] or Venmo to @Myra-Santiago-9 is most preferred and every little bit will go towards mounting medical bills.

Hi, I am Gina and my sisters and I set up this page to help my sister, Myra and her husband, Carl.

My sister, Myra Santiago Fritz, was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer last March 22 at a young age, and it is now spreading to her brain and pelvic bone. She has to be on oxygen 24/7 and would need to undergo chemotherapy and medical treatments. We're all devastated by this news, but none of us are more devastated than her and her family as she had never smoked nor drank alcohol.

Sadly, her husband is also suffering from Stage 4 T-cells Lymphoblastic Lymphoma Cancer. Aside from cancer being a scary diagnosis, the financial implications such a diagnosis has on not one but two individuals in the household are just as terrifying.

As such, we are reaching out to your generous hearts to help our dear sister Myra through this gofund me page. Please help us alleviate the financial burden that has been placed on Myra and her family and allow us to focus on Myra and Carl's recovery and well-being. While Myra has insurance, it is barely enough to cover expensive chemo treatments and procedures. These have also depleted their savings. This cruel disease has had a tremendous toll on Myra and Carl mentally, emotionally physically and financially. In addition, both Myra and Carl are not able to work due to the severe symptoms and side effects of chemotherapy. We thank you in advance for providing assistance during this extremely difficult time. Any donations made will be used to cover chemotherapy sessions, treatment costs and any other expenses that can alleviate their financial stress while Myra fights to beat this.

Myra and Carl are wonderful parents to 3 boys ages 11, 7 and 5.

Anyone that knows Myra, knows how a strong person she is and has a wonderful passion for beautiful things in life. She is an absolute soldier, who is fighting until the end. As her family, we want nothing more than to support Myra during this difficult time. While our hearts are heavy as we write this message, we are still full of hope for better days to come and that she will respond well to treatment.

We kindly ask that you pray for her healing and pass this page along so that it may reach others, and begin Myra’s army of support. God bless you all.
