Ethan was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in May. The oncology team at Jacksonville University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Ethan is 43, worked as a bus conductor until May, 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 Jacksonville University Hospital 3 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $6,450 goes: • Transport to Jacksonville University Hospital: $780 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,450 • Scans and lab work: $1,000 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,220 Thank you for reading my story. - Clara

    Thinking of you. Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Dwarka so I could bring a meal

    • Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Ciudad de México.

      • Keep going. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Mumbai

        • Best of luck, Clara. Hope the doctors have good news. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best
