Medical Bill Relief for Breast Cancer Treatment
Donation protected
Angela, my wonderful, little sister was diagnosed with DCIS-IDC HER2 positive breast cancer (Invasive Ductal Carcinoma), this past summer. Since her diagnosis she has packed her family and life up, and moved from Maui to Texas, and purchased her first home in Greenville. This move has come with the addition of a mortgage and with a lack of medical insurance. Angela has undergone multiple procedures so far, including biopsies, and a surgical placement of a chemotherapy port, in her chest. She is currently scheduled for further biopsies, and chemotherapy. Following chemo she will be scheduled for surgery to either remove the cancer, or her breast, followed by further chemo and/or radiation. The medical costs are mounting swiftly and will continue to do so, not to mention cost of living, time lost for her husband Marvin, from work, and the care of their two boys Malakai and Micah.My sister is so loving, caring, giving, and selfless. She gives endlessly to her family and friends, and loves everyone well! She is tasked with seemingly insurmountable obstacles, of undergoing life altering cancer treatment, homeschooling her boys, and caring for her family daily, while still suffering from autoimmune disease, Rheumatoid Arthritits. As new residents to Texas the family is having to build their community from the ground up, and we want to support them in every possible way as they live through, unbelievable, stress, and grief, and a new reality.We are asking for anyone and everyone to partner with us in her care, by giving any amount you can and feel lead to give. No amount is too small. Please share with your family and friends, near and far, and help lighten the load of the Macanas family in this difficult time in their lives! Your gift will be used to offset the cost of medical bills, prescriptions, medical supplies, surgical procedures, child care, transportation, care giving, and other related expenses, on Angela's reach for recovery.If you cannot give monetarily , we still covet your prayers for the family, treatment, healing and wellbeing of Angela and her family! If you have any questions, or would like to help the family in any other way, please reach out to me for a dedicated email.Thank you in advance for your prayers and support, it means everything to us!https://www.breastcancer.org/symptoms/types/idc https://www.healthline.com/health/breast-cancer/her2-positive-vs-her2-negative https://www.webmd.com/breast-cancer/treatment-chemotherapy#:~:text=Chemotherapy%20uses%20medicine%20to%20kill%20cancer%20cells.%20For,easier%20to%20remove.%20This%20is%20called%20neo-adjuvant%20therapy.https://www.health.com/condition/breast-cancer/22-ways-to-help-a-friend-with-breast-cancer?slide=7b043c80-09a4-4fc4-bf4a-aa0a51110d58#7b043c80-09a4-4fc4-bf4a-aa0a51110d58
