Fighting stomach cancer: help Armando afford treatment in Tlaquepaque
Supporting Armando through stomach cancer: medication, transport to Tlaquepaque Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
🇲🇽 Jalisco, Mexico1,566 views
Armando was diagnosed with stomach cancer in April. The oncology team at Tlaquepaque Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in June. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks.
Armando is 29, worked as a tailor until April, 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 Tlaquepaque Regional Medical Center 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $2,250 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,600
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85
• Transport to Tlaquepaque Regional Medical Center: $300
• Scans and lab work: $265
Thank you for reading my story.
