Jade was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in November. The oncology team at Nice Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in January. She will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Jade is 35, worked as a farmer until November, 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 Nice Cancer Centre 3 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 $7,150 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $520 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,850 • Scans and lab work: $1,400 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,380 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Updates from Émilie

          Sending good thoughts, Émilie. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from New York.
