Help Vince and Maria Battle DLBC Lymphoma Non Hodgekins

Donation protected
Hello everyone. My name is Maria I was just diagnosed in September with DLBC Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. It was discovered on the right side of my neck because one of my right neck lymph nodes started to get swollen badly.

From there, the CAT scans and MRIs showed it had spread to my liver. I spent 7 days in the hospital, and it's been so hard to do anything lately due to the swelling and pain.

I haven't been able to work, due to the excessive pain I'm in and all the time ived had to take to go to all the Oncology appt.s and Primary Dr. Appts as well as lab work, and that leaves everything up to my fiancé. Besides everything I am going through, I'm scared. I've never been in a situation like this.

I feel like everything is coming apart in my life. I have a great family, but everyone has their own lives, and that's why I'm reaching out to everyone with whatever amount they can help with.

Vince, my fiancé, is great with everything, but at this point, we need some help, and anything that can be donated would be a great help to us. I asked my fiancé to write a few paragraphs below to attach to this GoFundMe.

"We just found out that my fiancé has Diffuse Large B-Cell (DLBC) Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma cancer. It has already spread to her liver, and the doctors are saying it could possibly be stage 4.

We have been together for over 12 years and wish to have many more! I can't imagine my life without her. I asked her Dr. about doing radiation instead of chemotherapy but he recommended chemotherapy because of how much the cancer has already spread.

This has taken a financial burden on us because she can no longer work due to the severe pain she goes through every day. The swelling on her neck lymph node was so bad that the doctors were concerned it could lead to cerebral edema.

I am working as much as I can while still taking care of her full-time. I drive her to her doctor's appointments, I cook her meals, I pick up her meds, and I'm there to try to comfort her mentally and physically. It breaks my heart to see her worry about finacial stress as well. Especially any co payments and the bills coming in. I want to thank in advance for any and all help. GOD BLESS!
