Eva's kidney cancer treatment fund
Eva is facing kidney cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇬🇧 Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom1,034 views
Eva was diagnosed with kidney cancer in August. The oncology team at the Cardiff Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Eva is 53, worked as a hairdresser 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 the Cardiff Oncology Institute 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 $3,000 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $1,250
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,200
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $550
I hope life is good to you.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 7 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Cardiff
Rooting for you, Aaron. I hope things turn around soon. God bless.
wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out
Hope things get better soon. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this, Aaron. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Machakos so I could bring a meal. Love from Nice.
hope it all works out, Aaron. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out
