Love for Linda Dombek Milazzo
Don protégé
Hello friends!
In Sept 2015 our dear friend Linda Dombek Milazzo was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer. Linda is a strong, independent and hard working woman and has been fighting non stop since. (33 months to date)
She has endured an 8 1/2 hr surgery called the Whipple. It removed her tumor...top of her pancreas.. 20% of her stomach.. a huge part of intestines...her gall bladder and an ovary. They then rearranged everything.
The next 6 months were weekly chemos...including hospital stays in between. (Dec -june 2016)
After 3 short months of being chemo free... the unexpected happened.
Upon getting her every 3 month pet scan...it was discovered the cancer is back. Reoccurrence #1...
Then she did 6 weeks of daily radiation and chemo.
It has become hard for her to work....due to the extreme fatigue and nausea...and standing on her feet from the surgery. Again...after 4 months..it came back to reoccurrence#3 which brings us to today. She the did in Sept 2017 Cyberknife a radiation procedure for 5 days straight. It is triple the amount of reg radiation. Then the inevitable happened. Came back again....she is now stage 4 and has been on chemo ever since
To date she has done 40 double/triple drug chemos.
The first diagnoses was horrible but the 2 nd and 3rd reoccurrence is a nightmare.
This sudden and unexpected diagnosis naturally came as a shock to Linda and her family. Now,she not only faces the daunting and scary possibility of numerous tests and treatments which lie ahead but also will be unable to work for quite some time! Her immune system is shot.
Besides her family, Linda's love and passion is her chosen profession as a talented hairdresser. Unfortunately, when Linda is unable to work she is not compensated and has no means of income to pay her daily living expenses and bills. The health coverage she now carries is a very basic plan with no guarantees as to how much of her already accumulating expenses might be covered!
I am appealing on behalf of Linda that anyone so inclined may be moved to show your LOVE for LINDA and contribute any amount you can to help defray these costs and help us reach a goal.
The amount shown is all your love from last 2 years and it has helped Linda survive expenses these 2 year.s Unfortunately it is all gone now!!!!
Please help her concentrate on healing and not stressing about money everyday.
Thanking you in advance for your prayers, love and support. xo Nancy xo
