Belém
Luiz was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in September. The oncology team at the Belém Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in December. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Luiz is 47, worked as a tailor until September, 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 Belém Oncology Institute 5 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,900 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,450 • Transport to the Belém Oncology Institute: $230 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $220 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

            Rooting for you, Luana. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
