Tanya Bernard knock Cancer out
Donation protected
My name is Tanya Bernard. I was recently told that I have Lung Cancer. I am devastated. As many of you know my Dad Dick Jones died of lung cancer so it hits close. To say I am scared is an understatement. Money is tight. I don't know how else to say it. I need Gas money, Hotel stays money for trips to Seattle for tests I will be having and treatments for my Cancer. I will need money for parking, personal items, food, and the list goes on. I have no clue what they are going to total but already we are up above our financial means. I am on disability because I also have Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease. It is a neurological disease where I do not have the mylon sheath around my nerves to coat them that a "normal" person has. This causes severe pain all over to the point I am unable to work. Charcot- Marie-Tooth Disease also causes deformed feet. At 21 I was diagnosed with this genetic disease. I have had 4 reconstructive surgeries on my feet. Because of my deformed feet; I walk differently which then messed up my knees and back. In the past 6 years, I have had 4 back surgeries and I live in constant pain. I have Diabetes as well and due to this I have lost both my Pinky toes and walk with a brace. This new lung cancer diagnosis is terrifying. And it will attack those weak spots within my body. I am not one to ask for help but unfortunately, I have no choice. My family is struggling and I need your help. If you could donate I will be forever grateful. I will post updates on my progress. Please share to spread the word. Thank you so very much for everything.
