A Cuban woman battling advanced-stage cancer urgently needs assistance to continue her medical treatment amidst a dire situation that is worsening her health condition.
The plea was shared on social media by Kiryat Poey, who highlighted the plight of Tamara González Hernández, a resident of Cárdenas, Matanzas. Poey called for support to meet basic needs that Tamara is currently unable to address on her own.
Tamara is suffering from stage 3 uterine cancer and has experienced severe complications from radiation therapy, including a fistula causing constant leakage and bleeding. This leaves her in an extremely fragile state.
According to reports, she has required multiple blood transfusions and faces a constant risk of infections that could further deteriorate her health.

One of Tamara's most pressing needs is securing transportation to the Oncology Hospital in Havana, where she must continue her treatment—a necessity currently beyond her reach.
Additionally, she has an ongoing need for disposable adult diapers due to complications from her illness, adding to the burden amidst widespread shortages.
Those who wish to assist can contact her directly at the phone number 58213920 or visit her residence located at Tenería between 34 and 38, Building number 3, Staircase 903, Apartment 9, in the Fructuoso Rodríguez neighborhood of Cárdenas.
