Help Dylan through 8 rounds of treatment for a rare sarcoma
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Christchurch University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇳🇿 Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand2,299 views
Dylan was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in July. The oncology team at Christchurch University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Dylan is 25, worked as a bakery worker until July, 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 Christchurch 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 $3,400 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $850
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $370
• Transport to Christchurch University Hospital: $590
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,590
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Keep going, Zoey. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings!
Keep going. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
Praying for you, Zoey. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Leicester.
You're not alone, Zoey. Your post was clear and honest. After 11 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything!
Hope it all works out, Zoey. I hope things turn around soon. All the best.
Sending love, Zoey. Hope you get there. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Hyderabad.
stay strong, Zoey. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Christchurch.
Wishing you the best, Zoey. Hope you get there. Sent it to 22 people at work. Thinking of Christchurch.
Sending love, Zoey. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
