Need help with expenses for my treatment

Donation protected
Who this will help
I am trying to raise money for my self . In September I was in the hospital for anemia my blood level was a 3 . I had to receive blood transfusions every week for 7 weeks . In the midst of those weeks I had to call out a lot from work and also didn’t feel good had to leave early some days . Now in November I was diagnosed with an auto immune called hemolytic Anemia and this is where your bone marrow is being attacked. I had to go on a steroid to see if it would help stabilize my blood levels . It has been working but now am diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia ( Mylofibrosis ) and I will be undergoing treatment in a week .. to see if it will help . I haven’t been making my 40 hours and am struggling with finances . I don’t know how I will feel with the treatment and so I need help with rent , food , and other expenses coming up .

*** UPDATE **
so the treatment Rixucan I did in January did not help me it actually stopped my bone marrow completely from working . In may I was back in the hospital with a hemoglobin of 3.7 and had to get 4 units of blood I spent 3 days in there . Left with a 9.2 than a month later I was back in the hospital with levels of 5 having to do more blood transfusion . My hematologist requested another bone marrow biopsy and said I might have aplastic anemia due to my bone. Marrow not working I have to do a immunosuppressant and back on prednisone ( which in case is hard to take with all the side effects ) I’m awaiting results from biopsy ! But if I need to do this treatment I am going to need money to pay for it and co pays to go to the doctors !

second update !!!
the doctor wants me to do a chemotherapy pill Cyclophosphamide to suppress my immune system to see if that will help me produce red blood cells and also need to get a titanium toxicity panel done to see if the rid in my leg is effecting me at all since it’s been in for 15 years ! I am currently in the process of getting new insurance so I can’t pay for these two things and if you can help out that would be a god sent

if you can help in anyway that would be greatly appreciated ! Thank you and god bless

Why I'm fundraising
To pay for finances that are coming up in the next months and so I don’t have to stress about it while I’m trying to heal because the stress of this money is causing me anxiety on top of all the doctors appointments

The impact of your support
This means a lot to me and anything to lessen the stress and worry . I hope that anyone that reads this will be able to help out even if it’s a small amount.
