Fighting stage 3 ovarian cancer: help Ursula afford treatment in Berlin
Supporting Ursula through stage 3 ovarian cancer: medication, transport to Berlin Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
🇩🇪 Berlin, Germany1,301 views
Ursula was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in August. The oncology team at Berlin Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Ursula is 52, worked as a construction supervisor until August, 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 Berlin Cancer Centre 2 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $6,400 goes:
• Transport to Berlin Cancer Centre: $580
• Scans and lab work: $580
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,950
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $290
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Good luck. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Berlin.
How is Ursula doing now?
Hope it all works out. Wishing Ursula a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Ursula?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about transport to Berlin Cancer Centre, advice is welcome too. Ask me anything else.
Sending strength. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Lagos
So sorry you're going through this, Ludwig. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Kilkenny but we're thinking of you.
Thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Poznań
