Help for Elyse
Donation protected
A long-time friend of mine, Daniel, is a single dad whose 5-year-old daughter, Elyse, was diagnosed in 2016 with cancer. She has inoperable tumors on her spine that can only be treated with chemo and/or radiation. She is currently undergoing what will end up being a year of intense chemo. Her dad works hard, but with a sick child, sometimes has to miss work to see to her medical needs and with a job that pays by the hour, missed work means missed pay. In addition to the direct impact this illness has had on his income, his health insurance covers only a fraction of the actual medical costs. As an example of the challenges they face: her chemo treatments have, most recently, caused her to lose teeth and he had to pay an expensive dental bill to have two abscessed teeth extracted (something I would never have known was a possibility). So, I thought there might be some of you folks who could help, to whatever extent you're able. They have been incurring expenses for some time now and the situation is a burden, financially. Your help is deeply appreciated.
