My sister Vanessa's medical fund
My sister Vanessa is a few years older than me, she is a kind and loving woman of God. She has a husband with 3 sons with children of their own. She is now residing in North Las Vegas, but they are originally from Honolulu, HI. In our immediate family we have suffered much loss. In 2002, we lost 2 of our eldest brother and sister to Liver Cancer and Cervical Cancer 4 months apart. And our Papa finally left us in 2006. Just yesterday my sister got her tests results back and got the bad news of Cancer in her womb. These past 10 years it has been hard for her because they could not afford medical insurance under her husbands plan. So she tried to get insurance on her own and was turned down several times. She finally recently got insurance, but by now her health situation got worse and ended up in the emergency room. They took some tests and just gave her the results yesterday (monday).
So they referred her to a specialist and hospital. Her co-payment is very pricey for this procedure. So she was told she needs $500 down for the hospital and $3000.00 for the specialist to do her full hysterectomy. They have to do the surgery on her to find out how bad the cancer is. So right now we are concerned about time. She needs immediate surgery. So we are asking for donations to help her with her surgery. She is my only eldest sister I have left. We have one younger sister, and another older brother on Molokai. We are all praying for a good outcome when she does get the surgery. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. We hope you will consider donating monetarily what ever you can! Aloha, Desiree
