Help Elke through 6 rounds of treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma
Supporting Elke through non-Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Augsburg Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
🇩🇪 Germany1,210 views
Elke was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Augsburg Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Elke is 54, worked as a hairdresser 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 Augsburg Cancer Centre 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 her shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $7,000 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $940
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $820
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,240
Thanks for reading all this.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Hawassa so I could bring a meal
Stay strong, Gabriele. Hope the doctors have good news. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.
Hang in there. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings!
