Help save my life!

I've always dreamed of becoming a chef. I took hotel and restaurant management for my undergraduate degree, and earned a culinary diploma 3 months ago. I was set to take my practicum before December, but I recently discovered that I have bone cancer. For those who don't know, bone cancer is probably one of the most painful cancers there is. The tumor is on my right wrist, and if it isn't treated immediately, I may have to lose my hand. That is something, as an aspiring chef, that will destroy me and my dreams of succeeding. So please, help me. My operation is scheduled on the 8th, but I need to pay a down payment on the 7th. Please, save my life.
