Fighting thyroid cancer: help Iwona afford treatment in Warsaw
Supporting Iwona through thyroid cancer: medication, transport to the Warsaw Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.
Anywhere in the world327 views
Iwona was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in June. The oncology team at the Warsaw Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Iwona is 49, worked as a bus conductor until June, 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 the Warsaw Oncology Institute 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 $2,500 goes:
• Transport to the Warsaw Oncology Institute: $330
• Household costs while unable to work: $490
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,550
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $130

Wishing you peace. Hope the doctors have good news. Put this on a community board in Wollongong this morning. Thinking of Warsaw
Keep going, Kacper. Looking forward to the next update. It's not much but it's yours. Take care
Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Iloilo City.
Praying for you, Kacper. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 16 people at work. Love from Depok
Rooting for you, Kacper. I hope things turn around soon.
