Help Jervey beat Leukemia
Donation protected
Jervey is the strongest most caring husband, father and friend. He has always been the one to call when someone needs something and will drop whatever he is doing to help.
On January 11 2019 he came home from work (construction) feeling ill. Fever and malaise. After a week he began to feel better but on 1/20 he began to feel as if he had a sinus infection. We received antibiotics and steroids but during the week he was not getting better. On Monday 1/28 took him back to the doctor expecting to change antibiotics but after a blood test at 11:36 am our world turned upside down. He was diagnosed with AML and the wheels began to turn to get him into oncology. At 2:00 the doctor called and said he was in a blast crisis and we needed to get to the hospital ASAP. By 4:00 we were in a room and had begun Hydrea. His spleen was extremely swollen and very painful. His gums were swollen and a lymph node under left jaw was the size of an orange.
We are currently on day 6 of chemo and expect to be in the BMT ward for another 3-4 weeks.
As Jervey is the sole bread winner right now we are in financial crisis. I have a job that I can start soon but our need is immediate as the bills are stacking up.
We would normally not resort to this level but I know there are those who will help us through this and for that we will be eternally grateful. GOD bless you all.
