Reality star Angela “Big Ang” Raiola is hospitalized once again due to cancer complications. It is reported that her cancer has now moved to stage four and that she isn’t responding well to chemotherapy.
A source told RadarOnline that one of Big Ang’s tumors have also grown larger. “It’s serious,” the source said. “She isn’t doing well right now.”
Her sister, Janini Detore, has already started a GoFundMe page to help raise money for Big Ang,“As you know my sister was diagnosed with stage 4 brain and lung cancer,” she wrote on the page. “Chemotherapy was started January 5 th. On January 26th the doctor reviewed her CT scan and informed us that the treatment was not working, and in fact one tumor grew larger and the other tumors had no change.”
Here’s what she posted,
“Many of you know her as “Big Ang” of Mob Wives, but we know her as Angela our sister , mother, grandmother , aunt , cousin or just a friend. Angela is the 5th of 7 children mother of 2, grandmother of 6 and the friend of many . As you know my sister was diagnosed with stage 4 brain and lung cancer. Chemotherapy was started January 5 th. On January 26th the doctor reviewed her CT scan and informed us that the treatment was not working, and in fact one tumor grew larger and the other tumors had no change. We were advised that she would start immunotherapy the following week. Well here we are at the emergency room waiting to see why her breathing is labored and the amount of pain she is having is by far more than she could handle. So I suggested cannabis oil as an alternative. This is why I am putting up this go fund me to try to help my sister to get this oil to help her at least be pain free. Angela cannot function to work anymore. I’m not sure that it will work but I’m praying . We all thank you in advance for your prayers & kind wishes. Help Big Ang fight her BIGGEST BATTLE!”
One person who has been by her side is Mobwives costar, Karen Gravano. “She has a lot of support and family,” Gravano added. “Cancer is a day-to-day battle and she battling with a lot of loved ones and support. She is fighter. Mob wives are going to come together to fight with her to beat this.”
As of right now the page has already reached $22,000+ with a goal of $25K.We will continue to keep her in our prayers.
