Fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia: help Emanuele afford treatment in Rome
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Rome Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇮🇹 Lazio, Italy5,482 views
Emanuele was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in February. The oncology team at Rome Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Emanuele is 54, worked as a bank teller until February, 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 Rome Regional Medical Center 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 $5,500 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,800
• Scans and lab work: $860
• Transport to Rome Regional Medical Center: $530
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $420
• Household costs while unable to work: $890
With deep gratitude,
Daniele

Hope it all works out, Daniele. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Rome.
good luck. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We're a small family in Lahore but we're thinking of you. Take care.
