Fighting kidney cancer: help Audrey afford treatment in Dallas

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

Audrey was diagnosed with kidney cancer in August. The oncology team at Dallas University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Audrey is 57, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Dallas 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $7,350 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,750 • Transport to Dallas University Hospital: $640 • Household costs while unable to work: $960 Thanks for being kind about this. - Theodore
