Help Crystal through 4 rounds of treatment for stage 2 breast cancer
Supporting Crystal through stage 2 breast cancer: medication, transport to the Leeds Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.
🇬🇧 Leeds, England, United Kingdom2,060 views
Crystal was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in July. The oncology team at the Leeds Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Crystal is 27, worked as a primary school teacher until July, 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 Leeds Oncology Institute 2 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 $6,700 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,000
• Scans and lab work: $680
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,020
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Sending love. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Crystal.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. household costs while unable to work is the biggest at $1,000. Ask me anything else.
You're not alone. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from San Cristóbal de las Casas.
Thanks for sharing this. Get well soon. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
