This is gonna be hard… I didn’t want to post details on Facebook. And PLEASE dont blow up my phone as it’s a LOT going ok right now and i am completely overloaded. I don’t like getting into personal details. But I feel like I’m in a position that I don’t have a choice…. Tempe is going to be in the hospital for what looks like could be weeks or more…. She has just been diagnosed with Leukemia…. Something that, even as I type it doesn’t quite process or seem real. How do I tell a 7yo little girl that she has cancer? It’s the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with in my life. I don’t know how to do this on my own. I’m watching her sleep, and I am utterly terrified. Terrified that this is just the beginning. Terrified about having this conversation with her or anyone else. And scared that I could run into issues with her insurance. And in turn, I am terrified that I’m going to lose everything because I am already struggling big time financially.
I HATE asking for help. I hate that I have to. That I can’t provide better for my child. But this is where I am. I don’t know when or in what capacity I will be able to work again. I’m terrified to leave her side.
If anyone is able to help me at all with anything so we can stay afloat, I can’t stress how much it would mean to me. I understand if you can’t help, but maybe you can share?
Again, I’m so sorry for asking, I just don’t know how else I’ll be able to do this….
