A bit of unwelcomed news.
That'd be my reflection in the window of Nuclear Medicine. It was really the last place I thought I'd be today as I was having blood tests and meeting with the oncologist.
I went to the cancer hospital in the city which requires a lot of time and public transportation.
Additionally, we always have to secure lodging for early appointments because the system just can't get us where we need to go at that hour.
The numbers, tumor marker numbers and organ functionability numbers were WAY out of range and could indicate a serious problem.
So, my oncologist ordered an emergency PET scan to see what's going on. I'll be having that tomorrow, and then will have to wait for results.
Your prayers and support are always appreciated, and your continued financial support has helped us navigate some very difficult times.
We could use your help now to bolster our meds and supplement protocol, as well as increased trips to the city, transportation, lodging, and other expenses not covered by insurance.
If you'd like to set up a recurring monthly donation to aid our family's medical needs or make a year-end or one time donation in any amount, it would be tremendously helpful.
If you have any questions or wish to use another method for donations, you may contact Lauren or myself for further details.
Thanks for taking the time to read about my health, my fight against cancer, and our family's need in this crucial time.
Much love to you all.
As many of you know, we've been through it this past 2+ years. Pain and discomfort, diagnosis, cancer detected, unbelievable insurance and medical bureaucracy to navigate, multiple surgeries, chemo, and recently a major 20 hour surgery which was supposed to be curative.
There have been many challenges in and around all of these to include physical, mental, spiritual, and financial. It's been a tough road.
I am thankful for all of you that have donated generously to keeping me alive. I mean it. I have known several here who have passed because they couldn't afford to pay for treatment etc.
Even with many donations, we are still accumulating debt. Simply put, we can use an influx of new donations. If you are able to make a recurring monthly donation, great. If you can donate one time, awesome! If you cannot donate but can share these updates, we appreciate it greatly.
In any case, this platform is trusted and secure and we've been using it for a lot of years. You can trust that your donation will get to us safely and in a timely manner.
We Love you all.
Miguel, Lauren, and Kate.
