Urgent Aid for Shawn's Medical and Living Expenses

Donation protected







My name is Shawn Sawko, I've been diagnosed with Cancer and kidney blockage. In July and August I was experiencing horrible pains at my job and home to the point I couldn't work or sleep, I went to the emergency room and they said I had form of Cancer that was choking the life out my kidneys which they admitted me to a room. They did a surgery connecting tubes to my kidneys were I now had colostomy bags outside my body to pee in, they did more surgeries to get tissue for my cancer to see how they would handle the disease which they still don't know what kind of cancer it is yet also saying it could be disease called igG4...?? They did biopsies surgeries on me twice, and many other tests, I have no medical period, not thru my job or the state which limited the doctors to do certain things on me, as tax payer I can't get no help/Medicaid from the state or city of Odessa, only a voucher lasting 6 months for the cancer doctors but not for the kidney doctors which they big bill me for those visits, with no income because I'm unable to work I still had rent and bills to pay which I was unable to pay, I called all the services (city mission of Odessa, Catholic charities, salvation army, West Texas opportunities, ector county health assistance, ect, ) nobody could help me claiming they have no funds for rent assistance, electric, food, medications and medical stuff, when I was discharged as in and out cancer patient 2 weeks later I called everywhere for help but couldn't nothing with Cancer like catching cancer is just the end of your life, I was evicted from my apartment weeks later, bills still owed since I was diagnosed unable to work now, unable to pay for medications they charged me for knowing I have no income now, I tried to start GoFundMe but I guess was filling out on wrong scam sights, so never succeeded to raise funds, I filled out for food stamps and medical but was denied medical because I'm not 65 years old and food stamp case was never process for months now, can't file for unemployment until my trifling job finally let me go, I'm out of options just to survive which I post everything on Facebook and started asking for donations from my friends which most turned they back on me but few did help little but, now months later I'm still going thru all the same stuff, I'm super overwhelmed stressed out, seem like everything I try for help is a dead end, I'm constantly in pain and sick off these medications, can't get no help anywhere like my life is over because I got cancer kidney problems, past 3 months everyday has been a nightmare since I've been diagnosed... I need money just to survive for food, medications, doctor visits, bills, ect I don't what to do anymore besides be stressed and mad at the world realtalk, I need help financially asap, just figured out this GoFundMe site..
