Dirk's non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund

Dirk was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at The Hague University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks. Dirk is 28, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until August, 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 Hague University Hospital 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $8,900 goes: • Scans and lab work: $990 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,400 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,510 Thanks for reading all this. - Sem
