Wudil
Funmilayo was diagnosed with cervical cancer in July. The oncology team at Wudil Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Funmilayo is 56, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until July, 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 Wudil Regional Medical Center 2 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 $1,000 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $210 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $580 • Scans and lab work: $210 With deep gratitude, Lola

  • you're not alone. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Wudil.

    • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Funmilayo!

        Sure. The biggest one is household costs while unable to work, $210. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.

    • Hope this works out for you. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless

      • Sending love, Lola. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

        • your post was clear and honest. All the best!

          • You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. God bless

            • So sorry you're going through this, Lola. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.

              • you're not alone, Lola. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.

                • Hope the doctors have good news. My husband and I read this together. Take care.
