Fighting stomach cancer: help Neil afford treatment in Quezon City
Supporting Neil through stomach cancer: medication, transport to the Quezon City Oncology Institute, and living costs while He can't work.
🇵🇭 Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines3,788 views
Neil was diagnosed with stomach cancer in June. The oncology team at the Quezon City Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks.
Neil is 25, worked as a bakery worker until June, 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 the Quezon City Oncology Institute 5 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 $2,050 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,250
• Scans and lab work: $140
• Transport to the Quezon City Oncology Institute: $165
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85
• Household costs while unable to work: $410
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

how is Neil doing now?
rooting for you, Cris. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Neil.
Chemotherapy and medication not covered is $1,250 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks, that means a lot.
wishing you peace. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Jakarta
Sending strength, Cris. Your post was clear and honest. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.
