Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Abril afford treatment in Santa Fe
Abril is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇦🇷 Santa Fe, Santa Fe, Argentina1,766 views
Abril was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in July. The oncology team at Santa Fe University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 6 weeks.
Abril is 40, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until July, 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 Santa Fe University Hospital 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,850 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,100
• Transport to Santa Fe University Hospital: $230
• Household costs while unable to work: $260
• Scans and lab work: $260
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
