Erie
In March I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. My oncology team at the Erie Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in June. I was told to expect about 6 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 39, I worked as a bakery worker until March, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to the Erie Oncology Institute 4 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $6,300 goes: โ€ข Household costs while unable to work: $1,100 โ€ข Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,650 โ€ข Transport to the Erie Oncology Institute: $780 โ€ข Scans and lab work: $770 Every share and every dollar helps. - Eva
