The impact of Alisha’s illness is profound. Chemotherapy has left her unable to perform daily tasks, and the financial strain is overwhelming. The family cannot afford Casey’s therapy or medication, and she has gone without her medication for two weeks because the out-of-pocket co-pay is too high. With mounting medical bills and the cost of groceries and childcare, the family is struggling. Jennifer, Alisha’s mother, is providing round-the-clock support, but her disability check and food stamps are not enough to cover the family’s needs. Despite applying for disability benefits four months ago, they have yet to receive any assistance.
On top of these challenges, the family lost everything in Hurricane Helen, making their situation even more dire. The situation is urgent. Alisha is scheduled for surgery on June 10th, and the family is at risk of eviction if they cannot pay their overdue rent within two weeks. Your support can make a significant difference in their lives, helping to cover medical expenses, rent, and essential needs during this critical time. Please consider donating to help Alisha and her family navigate this difficult journey.
