US$1,680.00raised of $10,000.00 goal goal
Dena has been diagnosed with Breast Cancer.
Times were already hard for us,before all this we were trying to make the best out of what we had.
Now there are doctors bills, car repairs, days missed from work compunded with my layoffs, and with up coming surgeries and treatments we are starting to get so far in over our heads the light almost seems as though it was never really there.
If there is anything you can spare it would mean a great deal to us and help us more than most will ever understand.
Sincerely,
Cory and Dena Anderson

Update posted by Dena Anderson at 07:18 pmHi all! Well, here's my story so far: On November 1st, last year, I went to the doctor's for a surface lump on my left breast. It turned out to be nothing, but the Dr. asked if I have a family history of breast cancer. My maternal grandmother died of. . . . .

Update posted by Dena Anderson at 01:34 pmDena's pathology report showed that the tumor was a wicked mother, so She will be needing chemotherapy. This is not a death sentence at all, but a major blow nonetheless. Prayers are welcome as always, we are pretty upset right now. We will answer questions when we can, but need

Hello - I saw your situation on FB, through my sister, Chelsie Martin. We've fought cancer with uninsured loved ones, so we're painfully aware of what you're facing. I'll be posting your donation site on my FB as well, and sending prayers and positive thoughts to you both. Be well. Candice Lee
