Fábio's colon cancer treatment fund

Fábio was diagnosed with colon cancer in August. The oncology team at Rio de Janeiro Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Fábio is 25, worked as a bakery worker 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 Rio de Janeiro Cancer Centre 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 his shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,600 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $195 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $930 • Scans and lab work: $475 Glad we found this place.
