Fighting multiple myeloma: help Chiara afford treatment in Parma
Supporting Chiara through multiple myeloma: medication, transport to Parma Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
🇮🇹 Italy5,643 views
Chiara was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in June. The oncology team at Parma Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Chiara is 45, worked as a nurse until June, 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 Parma Cancer Centre 4 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 $5,350 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,050
• Scans and lab work: $480
• Transport to Parma Cancer Centre: $440
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $280
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,100
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Thanks for sharing this. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Thane this morning.
Take care, Stefano. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Take care
So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Bogotá
Keep going, Stefano. Hope the doctors have good news. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Praying for you, Stefano. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from San Diego.
Thinking of you and your family, Stefano. Looking forward to the next update. Take care
Keep going. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Gangnam.
