Hi, my name is Jeff. I am fundraising for my wife, Jennifer. She was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer early in 2023 it was also in her lymph nodes. She is the mother of three (21m) (17m) (4f) children and one step-child (27f). Her 3 younger ones still live at home. One is employed full time, one is a senior with a part time job. The 4 year old refuses to work.
Jen has gone through intravenous chemotherapy and had her breasts removed, she was scheduled for radiation as well.
Unfortunately, after those treatments cancer is still present. She is currently doing chemotherapy and physical therapy at MUSC in South Carolina. Another surgery is also very likely. The radiation therapy is also going to be done, after the other treatments.
We were both working full time and doing ok, for obvious reasons Jen had to stop working. She is a server in food service, very tough job. I am writing this tonight because she is at work right now. She kept working her weekend job all the way through. It is 2, twelve hour shifts.
Monitoring a computer system.
She couldn't do the serving job though, she made approx 2000 to 2500 a month with that work. That income was lost for 10 months. Anymore we don't have many options left. Jennifer has started working again out of necessity. Tonight is her 8th night in a row without a day off. This is not helping her healing process and neither is all the financial stress. All of the money in the bank is gone, about 18,000 dollars.
Insurance is covering medical costs, but her quality of life is suffering.
I do not like asking for anything, and she will always say she is ok and not ask for help. I feel I have to though.
Thanks for reading this. I know there are so many people in the same boat. Have peaceful days.
