Help Élodie through 8 rounds of treatment for stage 3 ovarian cancer
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Surrey University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇨🇦 Surrey, British Columbia, Canada3,674 views
Élodie was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in August. The oncology team at Surrey University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Élodie is 41, worked as a construction supervisor 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 Surrey 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $7,700 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,500
• Transport to Surrey University Hospital: $820
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $380
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Stay strong. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Surrey
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Mumbai.
Praying for you, Thomas. This could happen to any of us.
Keep going, Thomas. I hope things turn around soon. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Surrey
Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Surrey.
Hope it all works out, Thomas. Get well soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
