I've been dealing with Metastatic cancer for almost 13 years. And now my teeth are rotting because of medication and Reclast. I don't even want to smile.But I can't afford it and I have an infected tooth that I have no money to fix. They never tell you this will happen. And now my mom has Metastatic caner.
Breast Cancer Emergency Fund provides quick and compassionate short-term emergency financial assistance to low-income breast cancer patients and their families.
I volunteered at Whiskey of the World and This Old Bag event. Both of these events were well run and left an incredible feeling inside of me knowing the donations from these events were going to a very important cause.
