Fighting stage 2 breast cancer: help Crystal afford treatment in Los Angeles

Crystal was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in July. The oncology team at Los Angeles University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Crystal is 45, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Los Angeles University Hospital 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $2,450 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $420 • Scans and lab work: $910 • Transport to Los Angeles University Hospital: $1,120 Thank you for reading my story.
