Donation protected
My Aunt Loretta Darby/Rice was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in August 2015, she began chemo shortly after, the Dr's also found a mass on her aorta. In January 2016 they found that her cancer had spread to her brain. The Dr's found 5 cancer masses on her brain an my Aunt started intensive radiation daily for 2 weeks. Radiation has caused her to lose all of her hair, she has decreased in mobility an is in need of a wheelchair an other medical equipent. She has sufered loss in her hearing, has lots of confusion and memory loss. My aunt is reciveing chemo treatment every 2 weeks at the U of I. She has always been the strong caregiver in her medical career as a CNA working at local nursing homes an providing care to patients in need. She is a wife, mother, aunt and grandmother who loves her family. Her goals are to live to see her grandkids grow up, graduate an get married.
Our families goal is to provide her with medical equipment to keep her mobile, assistance with medication. We want her to be comfortable an stress free with financial help to continue this battle with cancer!
Our family appreciate any an all help to defeat this cancer!!
