Longtime nurse & mom with aggressive brain tumor

Donation protected
My mother has been a nurse for 41 years. She has had to raise 3 kids on her own and one of her children is disabled. She has had a chordoma( very rare cancer in the spine) removed twice. About a week ago, she started having trouble seeing anything in both eyes on the right side. She was in 3 minor car accidents because of it. She has had severe migraines for quite some time. We thought she just needed to go to the eye doctor to get new glasses. They told her to go straight to the Emergency Room because something wasn’t right- maybe she had a stroke. Well, after several tests, it turns out that she has a Glioblastoma. This is the most deadly and fastest growing brain tumor you can have. Over the last few days, after receiving this diagnosis, her vision is progressively getting worse, as well as her speech. She is having the tumor removed in a few days. The doctor says that even after surgery, and whatever treatments possible, her life expectancy is 8-10 months. Because her son is disabled, she has been helping his wife support him hroughout all of his surgeries and auto immune disease. Because of this news, she will never drive again, can’t work, and will lose her eye sight completely. With all of the medical bills, and continued bills that she already had, we are at a loss with what to do financially. I know that you can’t help her heal and get better, but any financial help would do so much for this family. Anything at all.
