Fighting thyroid cancer: help Cristiane afford treatment in Niterói

10 rounds of treatment are planned at Niterói Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Niterói
Cristiane was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in May. The oncology team at Niterói Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Cristiane is 48, worked as a construction supervisor until May, 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 Niterói 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,000 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $380 • Scans and lab work: $300 • Transport to Niterói Cancer Centre: $320 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Antônia
