Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Cecilia afford treatment in Taguig
Cecilia is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
Anywhere in the world3,350 views
Cecilia was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in July. The oncology team at Taguig Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Cecilia is 56, worked as a farmer 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 Taguig Cancer Centre 3 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 $1,900 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,400
• Scans and lab work: $145
• Transport to Taguig Cancer Centre: $130
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $70
• Household costs while unable to work: $155
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Wishing you peace, Cesar. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Los Angeles!
Praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
