4 rounds of treatment are planned at Quezon City Cancer Centre; we are asking for help with the costs insurance does not cover.

Divina was diagnosed with colon cancer in April. The oncology team at Quezon City Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Divina is 54, worked as a shop owner until April, 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 Quezon City 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,150 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $600 • Scans and lab work: $180 • Transport to Quezon City Cancer Centre: $65 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $135 • Household costs while unable to work: $170 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Bryan

    Take care, Bryan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
