Autumn's non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund

Autumn is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Autumn was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in April. The oncology team at Nottingham University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Autumn is 52, worked as a construction supervisor until April, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Nottingham University Hospital 2 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly. We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $5,450 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,600 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $270 • Transport to Nottingham University Hospital: $860 • Scans and lab work: $720 Thank you for reading my story. - Josephine

Updates from Josephine

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($686 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 12% funded and the plan for transport to Nottingham University Hospital is now scheduled.

  3. Small update. $420 so far, I made the first payment toward transport to Nottingham University Hospital.

          Thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
