Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Nina afford treatment in Amsterdam
Supporting Nina through non-Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Amsterdam University Hospital, and living costs while She can't work.
🇳🇱 North Holland, Netherlands4,675 views
In December I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. My oncology team at Amsterdam University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in March. I was told to expect about 5 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 54, I worked as a nurse until December, and I have been the main earner for my household.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Amsterdam University Hospital 2 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly.
My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $5,200 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,950
• Scans and lab work: $1,350
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $420
• Transport to Amsterdam University Hospital: $480
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Take care, Nina. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't give up.
Sending good thoughts, Nina. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 22 years in nursing I know how hard it is to ask for anything
wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Amsterdam
Hope it all works out. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Ann Arbor.
