Cristian's early-stage lung cancer treatment fund
Cristian is facing early-stage lung cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇪🇸 Alcalá de Henares, Madrid, Spain3,507 views
Cristian was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in July. The oncology team at the Alcalá de Henares Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks.
Cristian is 37, worked as a bus conductor until July, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to the Alcalá de Henares Oncology Institute 4 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $5,000 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $390
• Transport to the Alcalá de Henares Oncology Institute: $340
• Household costs while unable to work: $560
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,710
If you're reading this, thank you.

Sending good thoughts. Your post was clear and honest. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care
Hope things get better soon, Liliana. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Kochi.
Hope it all works out, Liliana. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Cincinnati donated after I showed her your page!
Best of luck. Looking forward to the next update. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Take care.
You're not alone, Liliana. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
Keep going, Liliana. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care
