Help Dave Beat This Deadly Disease
Donation protected
As some may know, I'm in the hospital.
Where after a battery of tests, it was discovered that I have Leukemia.The full diagnosis is B -Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. What that means is that my bone marrow is not producing any of the red, white, or platelet cells that I need to live. I have been told that the treatment is no laughing matter, it will be intense, daily, and progressively unpleasant.
The diagnosis cones as a huge surprise but then who expects to get any type of cancer.
Unfortunately, I have no health care coverage and will be unable to work for a while. Depending on how the treatment goes, I may need to have a bone marrow transplant. Part of me wants to say it's all good and I can handle it, but that would be a lie, I'm scared about the treatment. How am I going to get through this? Is it going to work? How do I pay for all of this? And then I have to worry about paying the rent and any bills that come in while in treatment if I can't return to work.
I dont normally ask for help because I'm stubborn and I can do it all be my self. This time I can't do it by myself.
My doctors want my total focus on getting better. Not sure what else to say except thanks for reading this.
Thank you for anything you can help with.
