Incurable PEComa Cancer
Donation protected
UPDATE: April 2016
For many people cancer is one of the scariest things to be diagnosed with. There are multiple treatments for all kinds of cancer, but for the one my mom was diagnosed with over a year ago everything is a trial and error situation. My mom has PEComa cancer (Pervascular Epitheliod Cell Tumors) all throughout her body. She was on a six treatment trial with a strong chemo-therapy that showed very little changes. Due to this she is now on two types of chemo-therapy almost every single week on top of medications, and steroid booster shots to keep her body in shape for the chemo-therapy. She has lost all her hair, and there is no cure for her. Basically she has to choose to continue taking chemo-therapy for the rest of her life to keep her alive. It is not easy to talk about, and it was a hard decision to make, but she is fighting with all her strength to keep going. I wanted to share this with everyone hoping that each and everyone of you will share, pray and help in any way you can. All the stress of bills, and regular day life has been really taking a toll on my mom. We are hoping that everyone understands how hard this is on her.
We are not asking for much, just help with sharing this post and letting everyone know my mom's story. We have appreciated all the donations and prayers because it helped us get through medical expenses and helped my mom push herself even harder to keep going and fighting for her life.
We thank you, and we send prayers to your families as well.
God Bless
