Alcalá de Henares
Alejandro was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in June. The oncology team at Alcalá de Henares Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Alejandro is 36, 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 him. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Alcalá de Henares Cancer Centre 5 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $4,000 goes: • Transport to Alcalá de Henares Cancer Centre: $610 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $450 • Scans and lab work: $790 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,150 Thank you for reading my story.

  • hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

    • Is transport to Alcalá de Henares Cancer Centre the biggest cost or is there more coming?

      • Transport to Alcalá de Henares Cancer Centre is $610 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.

      you're not alone. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.

      • Sending love. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
