Fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia: help Bea afford treatment in Caloocan
4 rounds of treatment are planned at the Caloocan Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

In July I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. My oncology team at the Caloocan Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in October. I was told to expect about 3 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 54, I worked as a taxi driver until July, 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 Caloocan Oncology Institute 5 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $950 goes:
• Transport to the Caloocan Oncology Institute: $195
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $125
• Household costs while unable to work: $400
• Scans and lab work: $230
Thank you for reading my story.

everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings
