Two Deaths.Fire. Heartbroken Family & now Cancer.

Donation protected
We are a loving family of five who have had two terrible years with two deaths already. I buried my beautiful sister Kathy at the young age of fifty-four in the summer of 2017. A few months later in 2018, I buried my father, this after a freak fire broke out in the middle of the night at my parents home. Now, my only other sibling, my sister Lisa Sellers, was diagnosed with Stage IV Non-Small cell lung cancer that spread to the brain.
     Lisa was a longtime travel agent but when the travel industry took a hit from big online competitors she took to delivering pizzas and "Uber'ing" to pay the bills. She was raising her small grandchildren when she found herself unable to walk or keep her balance. That is when the cancer diagnosis was made and her grandchildren came to live with me and my family.
     Lisa continued as an Uber driver even through multiple rounds of chemo and a life saving craniotomy. Her doctor was amazed at her will to live and so after she successfully completed chemo and radiation he recommended her for an Immunotherapy trial. She was hopeful but when her most recent scan revealed more brain tumors (despite the doctor telling her that her numbers were all good) she was let go from the trial. Lisa wants to pursue alternative treatments but she has no money to do so, nor can she afford to pay the mounting bills on the services already rendered in treating her cancer.  She can't even afford to buy the burial plot next to my father which she desperately wants. She is only fifty-four. Too young to die. Please help if you can.  I can't tell you what it would mean to Lisa. She shouldn't have to worry about all of this and if I could take her worry and hardship away I would.

God Bless ,
From Her loving sister Jenny
