Summary: Dear Johnny, My name is Christina. I'm a single mom of 4 great kids. In July of this year something didn't feel right and I felt a small lump on my left breast. I went in for a mammogram and doctors found 3 lumps. After scans and testing I was diagnosed with breast cancer and scheduled for a single mastectomy in September. After the surgery I started chemo in October (I have had 4 rounds, now have 12 left). With my surgery they removed 18 lymph nodes, 14 were cancerous. With surgery and treatments I have missed several weeks of work and it has been tough to make ends meet. For the last 6 years I have been a school bus driver and bus aid for a local school district and with my immune system compromised, it’s hard to work and be around the kids. I have applied for disability and should have it right after the first of the year but I am late on December rent and I'm at a loss to how I'm going to make it. I owe $1427 with late fee. I never thought this could happen. Thank you for reading my letter. Please help if you can. Christina Who Helped: David Ball, Dan, Big E, Ron, Kristin, Ken, Clay, Cameron, Ken, Cosentino’s How You Helped: 2 months rent, gift cards for Christmas for the kids and groceries
