Fighting stage 3 ovarian cancer: help Travis afford treatment in Anaheim
Supporting Travis through stage 3 ovarian cancer: medication, transport to Anaheim Cancer Centre, and living costs while He can't work.

In September I was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. My oncology team at Anaheim Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in November. I was told to expect about 7 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 43, I worked as a primary school teacher until September, 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 Anaheim Cancer Centre 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 $10,650 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,000
• Scans and lab work: $1,550
• Transport to Anaheim Cancer Centre: $770
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $450
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,880
Thanks for reading all this.
