Eugene

Jacob was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in January. The oncology team at the Eugene Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in April. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Jacob is 58, worked as a shop owner until January, 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 the Eugene Oncology Institute 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 his shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $6,800 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $1,050 • Transport to the Eugene Oncology Institute: $780 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,970 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
