Tel Aviv
Meir was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in July. The oncology team at Tel Aviv Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Meir is 44, worked as a shop owner until July, 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 Tel Aviv Regional Medical Center 4 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 $8,600 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,500 • Scans and lab work: $1,100 • Transport to Tel Aviv Regional Medical Center: $870 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $290 • Household costs while unable to work: $840 Every share and every dollar helps. - Orly

Updates from Orly

  1. Thank you all. We're at 16% now ($1,346). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team is now scheduled.

  2. Small update. $1,296 so far, the plan for nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team is now scheduled.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($711 in total) the plan for scans and lab work is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

      Rooting for you. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.

            So sorry you're going through this, Orly. Hope the doctors have good news. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Niterói.
