Help Lisa Pisano's Son Fight Rare Cancer
Donation protected
Lisa's son Tommy was diagnosed with AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia) in November of 2017 at the age of 20. He was admitted for Chemotherapy and was released and in remission 2 months later. Tommy went back to work until September of 2020, when he was told that the cancer had returned. This time, Tommy needed a bone marrow transplant. A bone marrow match was located, and Tommy was admitted to Yale New Haven's Smilow Cancer Hospital in January. Intense chemotherapy was administered for 1 week to kill his immune system and the transplant was completed.
Now, Tommy is trying to recover from a series of bad reactions to medication. He is fighting this disease but one of the things on his mind is whether he will be able to keep the car he worked so hard to buy. He is concerned about his future and his mom and sister want to ease that concern.
Due to the rare form of cancer he has, many of Tommy's treatments are experimental and are not covered by insurance. Lisa and Rebecca, Tommy's sister, need our help to allow Tommy to stay focused on his recovery and to cover mounting medical expenses.
Anything you give will go directly to the family to help them with these efforts.
Thank you for your kind support- any amount will help us reach our goal.
