Fighting early-stage lung cancer: help Na-young afford treatment in Incheon
Supporting Na-young through early-stage lung cancer: medication, transport to Incheon Regional Medical Center, and living costs while She can't work.
🇰🇷 South Korea5,027 views
Na-young was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in May. The oncology team at Incheon Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Na-young is 53, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until May, 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 Incheon Regional Medical Center 3 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 $8,050 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,500
• Scans and lab work: $620
• Transport to Incheon Regional Medical Center: $390
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $370
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,170
With deep gratitude,
Ha-joon

What's already covered and what's the $8,050 for?
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. chemotherapy and medication not covered comes first ($5,500) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.
rooting for you, Ha-joon. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Greetings from Los Angeles!
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Na-young?
Thank you. If you're in Incheon I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.
Thanks for sharing this. Wishing Na-young a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Blessings.
Rooting for you. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Praying for you, Ha-joon. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Love from Bogra.
