Hi Friends:
Just an update. I successfully completed four sessions of Chemotherapy at the end of Nov. '16 and was due to start prepping for Chemo by Dec. '16.
Unfortunately, I had a few delays, major one being shortness of breath and heart condition that required monitoring. I also developed Diabetes. Plans were being made to complete Radiation at St. James Centre for free, but as I was about to start they referred me to Brian Lara Centre (private) to submit lots of documents to apply for financial assistance. BUT, it takes approx. 2 mths. for the paperwork to go through the system and I must start Radiation within 6 mths. of having finished Chemo.
Yesterday I got the quote from Brian Lara Centre - TT$135,000. Still waiting on insurance to confirm how much they"ll cover - hopefully TT$75,000.
So, I have to raise TT$63,000 / US $9,000 to pay them off in full before I can begin any treatments.
The bank loan I applied for didn't come through and The fundraiser BBQ didn't happen either.
I am therefore once again asking if anyone can be of assistance, as so many of you had been for my surgery last year, and make any contribution at all, it would be greatly appreciated.
God bless you all in advance.
