Harper was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in June. The oncology team at Leicester Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 6 weeks. Harper is 54, worked as a taxi driver 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 Leicester 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 $8,650 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,900 • Household costs while unable to work: $2,050 • Scans and lab work: $710 • Transport to Leicester Cancer Centre: $990 With deep gratitude, Angel

  • rooting for you. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Istanbul but we're thinking of you. All the best.

        • Angel H. BanksOwnerAnswer

          Chemotherapy and medication not covered is $4,900 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Ask me anything else.

      • Wishing you peace, Angel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.

        • rooting for you, Angel. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best

          • Sending strength, Angel. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together. Blessings

            • Rooting for you. Get well soon. Please keep us posted. All the best

              • Keep going. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Leicester.

                • Wishing Harper a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Blessings.
