Fighting cervical cancer: help Cherry afford treatment in Quezon City

Cherry was diagnosed with cervical cancer in August. The oncology team at Quezon City Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Cherry is 52, worked as a hairdresser 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 Quezon City Regional Medical Center 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,400 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $820 • Scans and lab work: $200 • Transport to Quezon City Regional Medical Center: $75 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $60 • Household costs while unable to work: $245 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Samuel
