Guo's multiple myeloma treatment fund

Guo is facing multiple myeloma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Los Angeles
Guo was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in June. The oncology team at Los Angeles Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Guo is 41, worked as a shop owner 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 Los Angeles Regional Medical Center 4 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 $12,850 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $7,750 • Scans and lab work: $990 • Transport to Los Angeles Regional Medical Center: $1,350 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $560 • Household costs while unable to work: $2,200 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Los Angeles.

    • Nicolás W. Flores

      Hope it all works out, Lin. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor in Cairo donated after I showed her your page.

      • Makoto Akira Miyamoto

        Praying for you, Lin. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
