Hi I have been diagnosed with breast cancer. I have been undergoing testing for the last month in order to get a clear diagnosis. So then a plan can be made to move forward. Not sure yet if lumpectomy or masectomy will be needed. I think this last test will tell us. Thank you for this site. I am researching all I can, trying to prepare for all that lies ahead ( that I can think if anyway)
My boyfriend has has head neck brain cancer and we really needed help finding a place to live 2 bedroom would be nice.
I had breast cancer 20 years ago, but I was younger then and was able to work and help my husband. My son, who is a miracle, just turned 16 and has ADHD. On January of this year I was diagnosed again with breast cancer and the bills a piling up because I had to have bilateral mastectomy and now I’m going through chemotherapy. Since then I had to stop working. Would you please consider helping me financially? Thank you!
My ex was recently diagnosed with lung cancer and needs help financially as well as just some advice as to what to do next. Please contact me and i will pass along his info via private message. Thanks
Anyone with cancer knows how emotionally and financially hard it is. I’m 27 I have a 5 yr old starting school and now a 5 month old I have cervical cancer and it’s spread to my lip noods (sorry I don’t know the correct spelling) I’ve done chemo outside and inside radiation I’m not able to work and I’m struggling. My family have been amazing. But please everyone pray for our little family.
Hello, my mother has been fighting cancer for 2 and a half years, she went into remission after having surgery and doing a few rounds of chemo and radiation. The cancer migrated shortly after and since then its been really hard seeing her health decline, she has been working through it this whole time but she is at a point where she cannot work any longer, her job cannot giver her any assistance and the decisions have fallen on me. I never thought at my age (23) I would be trying to figure out how to set up appointments with numerous doctors, trying to learn exactly how to get her assistance all while trying to make her comfortable and not worry about the bills we have.
