6 rounds of treatment are planned at the Quezon City Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Quezon City
Jerome was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in August. The oncology team at the Quezon City Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Jerome is 31, worked as a taxi driver 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 the Quezon City Oncology Institute 5 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 $800 goes: • Scans and lab work: $290 • Household costs while unable to work: $290 • Transport to the Quezon City Oncology Institute: $155 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $65 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Ramon
