Fighting multiple myeloma: help Autumn afford treatment in Newcastle upon Tyne
Supporting Autumn through multiple myeloma: medication, transport to Newcastle upon Tyne University Hospital, and living costs while She can't work.
Anywhere in the world989 views
Autumn was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in May. The oncology team at Newcastle upon Tyne University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Autumn is 39, worked as a bakery worker 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 Newcastle upon Tyne University Hospital 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $3,650 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $590
• Household costs while unable to work: $2,150
• Transport to Newcastle upon Tyne University Hospital: $910
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

thanks for sharing this, Robert. Hope this works out for you.
Sending good thoughts, Robert. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from San Jose.
Hang in there, Robert. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Christchurch but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Hang in there, Robert. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Birmingham.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless

Hope things get better soon, Robert. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Newcastle upon Tyne
sending love, Robert. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
