Fighting thyroid cancer: help Paul afford treatment in Toulon
Paul is facing thyroid cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇫🇷 Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France8,743 views
Paul was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in December. The oncology team at Toulon Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in March. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Paul is 55, worked as a hairdresser until December, 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 Toulon Cancer Centre 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $6,450 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $1,200
• Transport to Toulon Cancer Centre: $340
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,910
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Thanks for sharing this, Colette. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
