Help Francisco through 4 rounds of treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Supporting Francisco through acute lymphoblastic leukemia: medication, transport to the Birmingham Oncology Institute, and living costs while He can't work.
Anywhere in the world8,911 views
Francisco was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in August. The oncology team at the Birmingham Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Francisco is 26, worked as a shop owner until August, 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 the Birmingham Oncology Institute 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $12,500 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $8,500
• Scans and lab work: $1,150
• Transport to the Birmingham Oncology Institute: $740
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $430
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,680

you're not alone, Antonio. Shared this with my family. Don't give up.
What exactly is the $12,500 for?
Chemotherapy and medication not covered is $8,500 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.
Keep going, Antonio. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Sandton.
Good luck, Antonio. Looking forward to the next update.
thanks for sharing this. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from San Diego.
Sending strength. Wishing Francisco a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'll check back for the next update. Take care
Wishing you peace. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Wudil
