Fighting multiple myeloma: help Gabriella afford treatment in Milan

Gabriella is facing multiple myeloma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Milan
In August I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. My oncology team at Milan Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in November. I was told to expect about 6 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 40, I worked as a nurse until August, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Milan Regional Medical Center 2 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,450 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $260 • Scans and lab work: $450 • Transport to Milan Regional Medical Center: $740 With deep gratitude, Gabriella

      • get well soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care

        • Hang in there, Gabriella. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.

          • Hope things get better soon, Gabriella. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Khon Kaen
