Fighting thyroid cancer: help Kinsley afford treatment in Liverpool
Supporting Kinsley through thyroid cancer: medication, transport to the Liverpool Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.
🇬🇧 Liverpool, England, United Kingdom3,531 views
Kinsley was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in June. The oncology team at the Liverpool Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Kinsley is 41, worked as a cleaner at a hospital 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 Liverpool Oncology Institute 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $5,100 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $870
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,900
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $580
• Household costs while unable to work: $750

Best of luck, Arianna. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
Sending good thoughts. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Liverpool.
