My name is Lynn Patrick and I am doing this fundraiser for my daughter Amanda.
She has papillary renal cell carcinoma, known as kidney cancer, on her right lower kidney, and it’s almost a 5cm mass. This cancer is hereditary and will keep coming back, she is told. She has had it on her lower left kidney, which they were able to remove. Now it’s returned on her right one.
She is going to have surgery, which will put her out of work for a lot longer than she anticipated. She is the only one working and needs our help.
The surgeon said it’s a very complex surgery, which means he can’t remove it robotically. There are too many veins to get to where it is. He also said there is a possibility of having to remove the whole kidney. We are hoping it doesn’t come to this.
She has put it in God’s and the surgeon’s hands.
Please, if you can help, even if it’s a little, anything will help.
Thank you
