Deanna DeeDee Towle/ Halsted/ Cheshier hasn't added a story.
Hi, my name is Deanna Cheshier. I just turned 53 this march 10th, 2013. I was newly diagnosed with this serious lung disease Feb of this year. And I am finding out how Very expensive the treatments are.
I just, this april 6th had my porta cath sugically implanted in my chest So I can get my very important treatments every week for the rest of my life.
Every little bit will help to take some of the burden off my shoulders. This is a life long illness. Sometimes ending in lung or liver transplants and even shortening of life. I applied for a scholarship to help with the cost of the trip to Washington DC in June for their 50th Anniversary of the discovery of this Lung and Liver disease that I have. Yesterday I recieved a call saying that because of the over whelming amount of applicants, that they couldn't accept my application at this time. I REALLY REALLY want to go to this. I want to learn as much as I can about this condition I have. It will be 5 days long, and I need your help for the plane and registration and other costs while there. I found out that the registration cost will be $110.00 and the hotel stay for 5 nights is $152.90 per night = $874.50 needed so far, and I don't know what the airfare will be from Bakersfield, CA. to Washington DC yet. ANYTHING would help and be GREATLY appreciated! Thank you for your support and God Bless.
