Three weeks ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer in the right breast. Surgery won't be until April 20 which seems a life time away. I believe in God and I believe things happen for a reason. I just haven't figured this one out yet. My mom had colon cancer in 2001 and survived. Then 2005 she was diagnosed with breast and stomach cancer. We lost her on January 26, 2006. There's been many medical problems in my family. I lost my sister and best friend September 13, 2009 (not to cancer) and my dad September 20, 2009 (not to cancer). And now here I am facing the fear of cancer. I pray every day for faith. I pray for strength, hope, and wisdom. I pray for courage. I pray to live.
I also have an illness called myasthenia gravis. It's similar to MS. Stress makes the systems worse.
If anyone knows of any grants that can help me financially please let me know. I'm on SSI and am barely making it and now with this...well I guess it could be worse.
