Fighting a rare sarcoma: help Victoria afford treatment in Laredo
Supporting Victoria through a rare sarcoma: medication, transport to Laredo Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
🇺🇸 United States4,398 views
Victoria was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in August. The oncology team at Laredo Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Victoria is 55, 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 her.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Laredo 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 her shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $7,100 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,200
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,500
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $570
• Scans and lab work: $830
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Wishing you peace. Your post was clear and honest. Please keep us posted
Hope this works out for you. After 13 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
wishing you the best, Aria. Wishing Victoria a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Love from Shinjuku
