I have Breast Cancer,Please help Me
I am Rebeca Herrera-Arguera, 39 years old. I been recently diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer on August 16, 2016 a day after my birthday. I have stage 3 Invasive Ductal Carcinoma that has spread to my lymph nodes as well, HER2+positive.
I couldn't believe or understand what the doctor's were telling me that day, I remember as they were giving me my diagnosis being completely paralyzed, confused, my brain didn't process the information, I was in shock. It took me days to accept the fact that I had breast cancer, that I was sick and I needed treatment as soon as possible to avoid it to spread to my lungs. I am the first of my family to be diagnosed with breast cancer no one has had it before me.
My 13 year old daughter, and a caring husband that is all I have, we are a small family and my husband is doing everything possible to keep providing for us. But the treatment is very expensive and i will be receiving chemotherapy for a year, and a double mastectomy next year if I defeat Cancer. I need all the help I can get to survive for my family, I owe them that. Please help me so that I can live for my family. Help us to succeed in my battle against breast cancer, please help me survive.
