Felix's a rare sarcoma treatment fund
10 rounds of treatment are planned at Duisburg University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Felix was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in August. The oncology team at Duisburg University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Felix is 56, worked as a nurse 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 Duisburg University Hospital 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $7,500 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,850
• Scans and lab work: $700
• Transport to Duisburg University Hospital: $630
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $600
• Household costs while unable to work: $720
With deep gratitude,
Klaus
