Fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia: help Megan afford treatment in Detroit

Megan is facing acute lymphoblastic leukemia and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Detroit
Megan was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in February. The oncology team at Detroit Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in April. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Megan is 43, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until February, 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 Detroit 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $8,100 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,750 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $700 • Transport to Detroit Regional Medical Center: $720 • Scans and lab work: $930 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
