Cover living expenses during cancer treatment
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Marjorie Tolbert, most people call me by my middle name Tess. I was diagnosed was cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma at age 20 and have been living and battling with it for the last 10 years. I am now 30 years old have a beautiful family, a husband a one year old, a 3 year old, and a 4 year old. They are my pride and joy and my purpose in life. Back in December I underwent full body radiation, 10 rounds. Since then I have unexpectedly landed in the hospital originally due to severe pneumonia but with multiple tests finding out my cancer had spread to other parts of my body and will be needing aggressive treatment. I have been in the hospital since 2/12 and will remain here until my first round of chemotherapy. I have gone through all my paid time off and now am just on unpaid leave. My husband has been my caregiver and my children’s caregiver throughout this time as well, so we have been a sole income household dependent on my salary. We are asking for love, support, and prayers during this time as we try and navigate our everyday living expenses for our family as well as battling this disease so we can settle back into our normal lives. Anything you can help with will be much appreciated.
