How You Can Help This Young Mother With Cancer
Crowdfunder: Hilda Oltean of Environmental Litigation Group
Campaign type: We’re looking for donations to support a cause
Campaign link: https://www.gofundme.com/2j4v26xdng
Goal: $100,000
Progress: $2,945
Project: The project aims to help Sarah Miller, a 23-year-old woman from Texas. She has a beautiful 5-year-old son named Blaze. Unfortunately, at age 19 she was diagnosed with mesothelioma. Now, she needs this money to cover the immense costs of her treatments, so she can ensure that she will remain alongside her husband and son for a long time.
Use of funds: The money raised will be used to ensure that Sarah can cover the expenses of all of her treatments (surgery, chemotherapy and radiation) and also all the trips she has to take in order to get professional medical help.
Anecdote: Sarah never worked near asbestos, but still she developed this incredibly rare and aggressive form of lung cancer at such a young age. Mesothelioma usually develops between 2 and 5 decades after exposure, so falling ill at age 19 seems like she was robbed of her youth and of a beautiful time alongside her family.
