Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Rafael afford treatment in Girona
Supporting Rafael through non-Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to the Girona Oncology Institute, and living costs while He can't work.
🇪🇸 Girona, Catalonia, Spain1,113 views
Rafael was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in December. The oncology team at the Girona Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in February. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Rafael is 48, worked as a tailor until December, 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 Girona 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 $3,850 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $610
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,850
• Transport to the Girona Oncology Institute: $390
I hope life is good to you.
