Fighting colon cancer: help Patricia afford treatment in Rosario

Patricia is facing colon cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Rosario
Patricia was diagnosed with colon cancer in August. The oncology team at the Rosario Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Patricia is 24, 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 the Rosario Oncology Institute 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 $1,950 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $920 • Scans and lab work: $270 • Transport to the Rosario Oncology Institute: $240 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $190 • Household costs while unable to work: $330 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Eduardo

  • Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from București

      Thinking of you and your family. Hope the doctors have good news. We're a small family in Tel Aviv but we're thinking of you.

      • sending good thoughts. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My husband and I read this together. All the best.
