Help Wendy pay for cancer recurrence & final days

I'm Wendy and seeking financial support for daily living costs and palliative cancer treatment for an unexpected metastatic lung cancer recurrence just 7 months after I was cancer free for 3 years 10 months.

Less than 4 years after my initial diagnosis where I was told I was cured (following the most painful surgery that took 8 months and physical therapies to recover) with the removal of my left upper lobe. Then only 4 months later, we all launched into a lung destroying pandemic and I cared for my father dying of kidney cancer, while raising my only child. As a single mom in her mid 40's, with no surviving parents or siblings, I can no longer continue my 25 year RN career. Despite never smoking or using any tobacco products, I have a lung cancer gene and this treatment is not curative, rather intended to hopefully give me another year to experience quality of life with my only child. I hope to sqeeze in finishing making a lifetime of positive, happy memories with my daughter since I will miss the biggest milestones of her late adolescence and adult life.

I want to go out flying (metaphorically), not being tortured to death in a hospital bed.

I live in the rural part of my state and my oncology team is 250 miles away. In person appointments, tests and treatments are an expensive endeavor. Medical bills (on Medicare and SSDI), utilities, groceries, fuel, car insurance and unexpected car repairs on my 2005 vehicle are daily costs that have become overwhelming and unsustainable. The unexpected economic increases has made it more difficult to afford necessary items. I used up my retirement (I wont make it to that age) and want my last year to be as positive as possible. Any way to ease my financial worries is a step closer to enjoying my time left in this world.

I humbly ask for any support you can offer. I know I am not the only one in this situation. I dedicated my career to the rewarding service of helping all kinds of people heal, recover or prepare patients and families for an end of life with dignity and proper pain management. Now it's time to set aside my pride and humbly ask for some help for myself.
