Iztapalapa
Guadalupe was diagnosed with cervical cancer in March. The oncology team at Iztapalapa Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in July. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Guadalupe is 43, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until March, 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 Iztapalapa 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $3,100 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,650 • Scans and lab work: $270 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $180 Thank you for reading my story.
