Tonya's kick cancer's butt fund

Donation protected
Two weeks ago my little sister, Tonya, woke up to find she was jaundice.   The doctors confirmed that she has biliary cancer.  She has had two surgeries in the course of one week.  The first was to drain the bile built up in her liver and to obtain samples of the mass found on her liver.   This required a external drainage port which has been very painful.   The second surgery installed a stent in her biliary ducts to help the bile drain where is should be draining to internally.  Tonya was hopeful she would be sans the external tubing and port with this operation, however it was necessary to keep the port in case the stent did not take.   A third surgery is scheduled to remove the external port and tubing this coming Monday.  Additionally, Tonya will be seeing the oncologist to make decisions of a course of treatment. The treatment may include chemotherapy and/or radiation.
As you can imagine this has been emotionally, physically, and financially draining on Tonya and Matt.  They have been planning for their wedding this November and this has blindsided them both. There have been many a sleepless night, either due to the pain or the stress. The costs of  cancer treatment are insurmountable even with the best of medical insurance.  
This fund will help aleviate the huge medical costs of Tonya's treatment and help both Tonya and Matt with any other expenses as they navigate this difficult situation.
Please help Tonya fight this awful disease.  I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
