Pink Month is here! If you follow me on facebook you will see my thoughts. While you will see on the GoFundMe total that I have raised a lot of funds. But to keep things in perspective, what I have raised with your help is maybe a years salary for a lot of people. Getting expert advise from top hospitals is expensive but live saving. I have traveled at least 4 times a year for medical for the past 10 years. The update. I was in the ER this past saturday. I got an infection on my open ulcerated breast cancer of the skin. The wound dressings and ointments for treating my skin are not covered by insurance and when the wound is bad(a lot) it can easily cost me over 1000 a month to buy the required specialty items for maintaining the wound. I am doing much better! I appreciate that times are hard for all and I am not necessarily asking you to support me. I am asking you to support anyone going through a life long disease battle.

The Cost of Staying Alive Living with Metastatic Breast Cancer: Things People Should Know Sometimes it feels like people reduce metastatic cancer to a financial calculation. They talk about treatment costs. Drug costs. Healthcare costs. The cost of keeping someone alive. What gets lost in the conversation is that behind every expense is a human being. A parent. A spouse. A friend. A life that still matters. Why Do You Keep Fighting? Living with Metastatic Breast Cancer: Things People Should Know People ask why I continue treatment when the medications can make me so sick. The answer is simple. Because I want more time. More birthdays. More school events. More hugs. More memories. The treatments come with a cost. But so does giving up. The fight is still real! It still sucks! But my life still matters! And I appreciate each day on this earth and each kind hearted person who understands and supports my my battle. I appreciate all the Cayman kind and the nice matters of this world. Thank you for indulging me and reading this message. Sometimes it's simply a great way for me to get things out of my head so I can keep fighting.
