Please Help Our Daughter Kick Cancers Ass!!


PLEASE HELP OUR DAUGHTER KICK CANCER’S ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!

On February 24, 2006 our daughter Jessica, just eighteen years old, was diagnosed with stage 4 Hodgkin Lymphoma. She went every two weeks for six months to get her ABDV chemo treatments. She maintained a positive attitude and was not willing to let this obstacle get in the way of her goal to graduate High School and enter college. Though remission lasted a very short seven months she still succeeded with her goals.
On April 6, 2007 we were informed her cancer was back. This time the doctors have planned a very aggressive chemotherapy treatment and Bone Marrow/Stem Cell transplant. Jessy will be hospitalized for three days to get chemo called ICE. This is some powerful stuff with all new side effects and dangers. This procedure is expected to be repeated every 3-4 weeks for three months. She will then be transferred to the Cleveland Clinic Taussig Cancer Center for a Bone Marrow/Stem Cell transplant. This will require her to be transported back–n-forth to Cleveland for 12 days then confined to the Cleveland Clinic for four weeks.
Because her cancer is so advanced, her Oncologist, Dr. Kalaycio, is highly suggesting that the Bone Marrow/Stem Cell transplant be completed twice to give her a better chance of prolonged remission. However, the Insurance company feels this procedure is only necessary once and therefore will not pay for it to be done a second time. The estimated cost of this procedure alone is $150,000.
We ask for your help in providing Jessy with some sense of relief from mounting medical bills. This is a lifelong illness that will financially plague her for the rest of her young life. Jessy continues to have a very positive outlook and with the help of family and friends like you; she will conquer her battle with cancer. Thank You on behalf of the entire Stayer family for your generous contributions.
