Fighting kidney cancer: help Caleb afford treatment in Anaheim

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

Anaheim
Caleb was diagnosed with kidney cancer in November. The oncology team at Anaheim Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in February. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Caleb is 50, worked as a taxi driver until November, 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 Anaheim 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 his shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $10,750 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $7,000 • Scans and lab work: $950 • Transport to Anaheim Regional Medical Center: $590 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $820 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,390 Glad we found this place. - Beth

    is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Caleb.

    • Beth W. PriceOwnerAnswer

      Chemotherapy and medication not covered is $7,000 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks for looking so closely.

    • Kai R. Reynolds

      wishing you the best, Beth. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 20 people at work. All the best.

        take care, Beth. Hope the doctors have good news. Blessings.

        • Todd W. Brennan

          Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 18 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.

            Stay strong, Beth. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Nashville so I could bring a meal
