Help Audrey through 10 rounds of treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Audrey is facing acute lymphoblastic leukemia and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Audrey was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in August. The oncology team at the Miami Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Audrey is 58, worked as a primary school teacher until August, 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 the Miami Oncology Institute 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $3,050 goes: • Scans and lab work: $1,200 • Transport to the Miami Oncology Institute: $1,300 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $550 Thank you so much. - Alexander

  • rooting for you, Alexander. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

    • Stay strong, Alexander. Shared it with a few friends. Don't give up. Take care.

      • Rooting for you, Alexander. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.

            hope it all works out. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

            • Rooting for you, Alexander. Hope the doctors have good news. I hope December is when things finally get easier. All the best.
