Fighting solo.

Mob Wives star Angela “Big Ang”

Raiola dropped a bombshell on Tuesday, during her appearance on The Dr. Oz

Show. The 55-year-old TV personality, who has been battling

stage 4 brain and lung cancer, announced that she has left her husband,

Neil Murphy.

“I felt like he never stepped up to

the plate, so I was done with it,” she told Dr. Oz. “Now, it’s too late. I

would rather be by myself. I would rather be alone.”

While she has left Murphy, Big

Ang isn’t fighting this battle by herself. Her two children and

six grandchildren, and her sister, Janine Detore, set up a GoFundMe page to

help with Raiola’s doctor’s fees.

In just two weeks, she has raised

$45,000, surpassing a goal of $25,000 by $20,000.

“If it wasn’t for them, how would I

get through this?” Raiola told Dr. Oz.

Murphy and Raiola have a complicated

history. During a July 2012 episode of her show Big Ang, Murphy -- who was

estranged from, but still married to Raiola at the time -- proposed to her again. The

couple reconciled and has since appeared on several reality shows together

including Celebrity Wife Swap.

In December, ET confirmed that

Raiola’s throat cancer had returned. She was first diagnosed with a lemon-sized

tumor in her throat in March 2015. A week later, she underwent surgery to

remove the tumor and all the lymph nodes on the left side of her throat, and

then in June, she underwent the same surgery on the right side of her throat.
