Sydney

Janet was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in October. The oncology team at Sydney University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in January. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Janet is 52, worked as a bank teller until October, 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 Sydney University Hospital 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 $2,350 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $820 • Scans and lab work: $1,150 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $380 Thank you so much.
