6 rounds of treatment are planned at Flint Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Flint
Henry was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in August. The oncology team at Flint Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Henry is 40, worked as a nurse 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 Flint Cancer Centre 2 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 $11,950 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,750 • Scans and lab work: $1,500 • Transport to Flint Cancer Centre: $830 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $780 • Household costs while unable to work: $2,090 Glad we found this place. - Faith
