Sara's Cancer Battle
Donation protected
Hi everyone, My name is Sara and I am 25 years old. I have been battling cancer for the last two years. I was diagnosed with Cervical Cancer in May of 2015 and had a hysterectomy in July of that same year.
I was told I was in the clear and everything was awesome, just a few months later my cancer had returned and with a force. I had 7 rounds of chemo and 32 radiation treatments. Those ended in Janruary of 2016. I went on to start college and am getting a certificate in Pharmacy. I was pretty excited and happy that I was given a second chance (again) at life. I was officially moving on and learning to love myself all over again.
This year 1-10-2017 I was told something that no cancer survivor wants to hear. My cancer has come back and it has spread. For the next 4 or 5 months (while continuing to go to school) I will be doing chemo and will loose all of my hair.
Doctor's are telling me that I am in the lucky 15% of patients that will keep coming back for more.
I am here on gofundme to ask for your help. I have two medical bills currently still in collections from my first time around with cancer and they have finally decided to try to start the process of taking me to court. (which I got that letter the same day of my 3rd diagnosis). I hate asking for help but this is the only way I know how. I need your help so that I won't get my car taken away so that I will have transport to appointments and school. I need your help in staying at my current residence so I do not get evicted.
This would mean so much to me because I am at a loss at what to do at this point in my life. The most I can do is keep fighting, but I can't do it alone.
The thanks I can give and the gratitude I can share will be so much. You will be helping a cancer patient survive.
Thank you for reading this, and thank you for giving.
