Lost Insurance-Want Reconstruction

Bellagirl

Just passed the five year milestone from my Triple Negative, stage IIIC BC. I wanted to have breast recontruction after my five year waiting period but just last month lost my health insurance as I could no longer afford it and my mortgage payment. Felt like a roof over my family's heads was more important especially since one of my daughters living with me is expecting my first grandchild in early April. Does anyone know of any websites or programs that perhaps have scholarships or charitable donations that would fund the surgery? Just thought I'd throw it out there to my fellow BC sisters since you all are so knowledgeable. THank you for your time. God Bless you.
