Hey friends and family,

I went into the ER for pain in my left side in January. While I was there they found some masses all throughout my body on the scans. So I’ve been going through surgeries and procedures to figure out what they are. So far, one of the masses, a small one on my kidney, came back positive as a clear cell renal cell carcinoma. I’m still awaiting the results of my a few more biopsies and some rescans. I’ve been disabled and labeled homebound by insurance. I’m applying for Medicaid/Medicare/disability and to get some financial assistance from the hospital for all of this, but I have private insurance through my husband’s company and the copays are expensive. Unfortunately, I’m not able to work and the medical bills and procedures are piling up on us. I’m not sure that I’ll be able to get much help through government assistance with the way things are right now, and I’m in for a long fight through it all anyway. If you can spare some funds to help me in my fight, I’d greatly appreciate it!
