Help Alexandre through 10 rounds of treatment for stage 3 ovarian cancer

Supporting Alexandre through stage 3 ovarian cancer: medication, transport to Rennes University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.

Rennes
Alexandre was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in June. The oncology team at Rennes University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Alexandre 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 Rennes University Hospital 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $8,200 goes: • Scans and lab work: $840 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,500 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,150 • Transport to Rennes University Hospital: $710 Thanks for being kind about this.

    is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Alexandre.

    • Sophie CousinOwnerAnswer

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. scans and lab work comes first ($840) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.

  • Amira SolimanVerified organization
