Fighting colon cancer: help Enrico afford treatment in Verona

Enrico was diagnosed with colon cancer in March. The oncology team at Verona University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Enrico is 51, worked as a nurse until March, 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 Verona University Hospital 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 $6,400 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,600 • Scans and lab work: $570 • Transport to Verona University Hospital: $660 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $220 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,350 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Marisa
