Bella's early-stage lung cancer treatment fund
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Wollongong Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Bella was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in August. The oncology team at Wollongong Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Bella is 30, worked as a bank teller until August, 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 Wollongong Regional Medical Center 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 $6,600 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $370
• Transport to Wollongong Regional Medical Center: $1,250
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,900
• Scans and lab work: $1,080
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Best of luck, Valentina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
Wishing you peace, Valentina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours.
Hang in there. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings
Rooting for you, Valentina. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
Praying for you. Shared this with my family. After 7 years in accounting I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
Thinking of you, Valentina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
Good luck, Valentina. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. God bless.
Praying for you, Valentina. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out.
