Help Brett through 10 rounds of treatment for stage 2 breast cancer
Brett is facing stage 2 breast cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇿🇦 Ekurhuleni, Gauteng, South Africa1,662 views
Brett was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in January. The oncology team at Ekurhuleni Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Brett is 35, worked as a primary school teacher until January, 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 Ekurhuleni 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $2,150 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,400
• Scans and lab work: $240
• Transport to Ekurhuleni Regional Medical Center: $150
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $100
• Household costs while unable to work: $260
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Rooting for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together
Praying for you. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 23 people at work. Blessings.
look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor in Bucaramanga donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
