Fighting kidney cancer: help Maverick afford treatment in Auckland
12 rounds of treatment are planned at Auckland Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇳🇿 New Zealand5,295 views
Maverick was diagnosed with kidney cancer in August. The oncology team at Auckland Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Maverick is 27, worked as a bank teller until August, 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 Auckland Regional Medical Center 5 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $9,850 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $7,500
• Scans and lab work: $1,650
• Transport to Auckland Regional Medical Center: $700
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Stay strong. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Buenos Aires
Wishing Maverick a smooth procedure and a full recovery. After 21 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Ogbomosho.
