Laurie Shy Martin hasn't added a story.
I was hurt at work on December 2009. I tore ligaments and have bulging discs which they dont want to do surgery on. I have multiple issues from this ie pain when walking, use a wheelchair or walker. Since then it seems to have went downhill. In August of 2014 I was diagnosed with Thyroid cancer and am currently in remission. My family drive me over 2 hours away for treatment. I have had breast surgery to remove suspicious lumps, a total hysterectomy and several other surgeries. In Feb of 2015 I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder that i fight everyday. In between all of this my hubby has been out of a job since January of 2016 and is now going to school to make us a better life. He has a year to go.
I had a colonoscopy last fall and the doctor says that he considers me to now have colon cancer but that it is a slow growing one, so we will watch it.
Fast forward to March 31 and I have been diagnosed with a brain tumor and a brain cyst. We are hoping for good news but preparing for not so good news.
I have been fighting disability all this time and I have lost. So we are up against a wall for my meds, gas for doctors, doctor fees and you name it. Any amount will help.
Thank you for listening.
