Bring my Mom and Sister Home for Cancer Support

Donation protected
My mom, Karen, was diagnosed with the most aggressive breast cancer about a month ago. 

She is a single parent and lives with my 6 year old sister Naomi all the way out in Arizona and doesn't have any familial support there 

I begged for her to move in with my family before starting chemo, but the doctors said because of the quick progression of the spread, she would need to start chemo asap in Arizona. 

She thought she could still work normally and raise a 6 year old all while going through treatment, but after a few doses, soon realized that was a task she would need the support of her family for. Her oncologist is now insisting on her to be out on leave and that she NEEDS family to help. She might not make it through without familial support. 

Her job is becoming more demanding and thus also pushing her to go out on leave. Its been very hard to work in conditions where treatments leave her with fatigue and high fevers. Her job cannot support her needing time off when these illnesses occur so they are pushing her to go on leave until she is done her treatments in 6 months. 

The problem lies in the fact that leave only pays about part of your income. My mother cannot afford her bills as a single parent on part income and as it gets harder, she will also need physical help to take care of a 6 year. She felt she couldn't even go to the ER the other day bc she had no one to care for my sister. 

We need her to move into our house ASAP but we cannot afford hefty moving costs. 

Her lease agreement is up in 2 weeks and the oncologists have told her they can transfer her for chemo nearby to where I live. She'll need to move within a months time.


This is the first time in my life I've ever asked for any financial assistance from anyone but no pride is greater than making sure my mom and sis are taken care of.

This is a BIG ask but any little bit will help. 

Thank you so much for your support in these tough times. ❤
