Deborah's Fight Against Breast Cancer
Donation protected
My name is Deborah and I was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer on February 6, 2019. I am the sole provider for my family. Prior to that, I have always been the savior to those in my inner circle when they've needed help. Now the shoe is on the other foot. I own my own business, and it's doing well, except right now, I am unable to work most days and that is hurting financially. Then I became my mother's primary caretaker toward the end of 2018 which has increased my household expenses. Unlike other years, I ended up paying several thousand in taxes I did not expect and at a time when I am unable to work. Although I do have insurance, I'm still accruing big medical bills in the thousands! To add to the financial strain, my senior cat has developed hyperthyroidism and is currently accruing $3000 in vet bills. I'm being pummeled and I need help. This is something I never thought I'd do, but it has gotten difficult to keep up. I need help to get me through the next 6 months as I continue my chemotherapy, radiation and reconstruction. Asking for help is not easy to do. I appreciate anything you can do.
