We’re raising $4,800 to support essential living expenses and medical care for Mdm Andrea, a 71-year-old cancer survivor facing new health challenges.

The Latest Chapter in Her Health Journey

Mdm Andrea, age 71, is facing one of the most challenging chapters of her life. A two-time cancer survivor, she has recently received concerning news about newly discovered nodules in her thyroid and lungs. Following a biopsy in January 2024, she anxiously awaits medical review while dealing with increased breathing difficulties and heightened anxiety.

From Survivor to Fighter

Her medical journey has been long and complex. Having battled breast cancer in 2003 and again in 2019, Mdm Andrea has shown remarkable resilience. In October 2022, she suffered a stroke that required hospitalization, adding to her health challenges. She currently manages multiple chronic conditions, including a brain tumor that causes fainting spells, along with osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, hypertension, and thyroid conditions. Since her last campaign with us, new health developments have occurred.

Current Medical Concerns:
* Newly discovered nodules in thyroid (3) and lungs (1)
* Awaiting crucial medical review
* Experiencing increased breathing difficulties
* Managing multiple chronic conditions

The Heart of a Mother

Behind these medical challenges lies a deeply personal story. Mdm Andrea has spent most of her adult life as a single mother, dedicating herself to raising her two sons alone. Her health conditions have prevented her from maintaining stable employment since her twenties, leading to ongoing financial struggles. Despite these challenges, she has always strived to maintain her independence and dignity.

When Love Means Letting Go

Mdm Andrea’s situation is further complicated by a difficult circumstance. Over time, she has lost contact with both her sons. She made the heartfelt decision not to press them for financial support. This decision, while showing her maternal love and sacrifice, has unfortunately made her ineligible for crucial social assistance programs, placing her in an even more precarious financial position.

Today, Mdm Andrea finds herself in an especially vulnerable position. Living alone with her complex medical needs, she has no active caregivers or family support system to rely on. Her situation has become increasingly difficult to manage independently, yet she continues to face each day with determination.

Your Kindness at Work

The funds raised will provide six months of essential support ($4800), carefully budgeted to cover:
* Monthly household utilities: $250
* Basic meals: $280
* Necessary medical supplies: $200
* Communications for medical coordination: $70

Your contribution will make an immediate and meaningful difference in Mdm Andrea’s life. Every dollar donated will help ensure she has a stable home environment, regular meals, and the ability to maintain her crucial medical appointments. Most importantly, it will give her peace of mind during this challenging period of her life.
