Hi, My name is Jacqueline.
My husband was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer in the beginning of 2024. I have spent most of that time trying to figure out how to survive. He is my rock. He is the family’s sole provider. He is my everything.
The short version is I need help. I care for my mother (who at the same time I was coming to terms with my husbands cancer ended up have blood flow issues in her leg that lead to two attempted bypass operations and sadly her leg being amputated when they failed. So she is now wheel chair bound). I also care for my three children with Autism. Now technically young adults they still need almost constant attention. I have put off my needs of both a hearing aid (deafness attributed to the years of screaming children) and new glasses. Additionally I need help covering those parts of Cancer treatment not covered by anything. My husband has been offered some hope in the form of clinical trials, but we need $2700.00 to pay our portion of this cost. It would be beneficial too if we had the money to get the continuous blood sugar monitor he was using that we had to stop due to money (they are $300.00 a month).
I will try to explain the extent of struggles when I can.
