Help Gerald through 10 rounds of treatment for cervical cancer
Supporting Gerald through cervical cancer: medication, transport to Los Angeles Cancer Centre, and living costs while He can't work.
🇺🇸 Los Angeles, California, United States2,780 views
Gerald was diagnosed with cervical cancer in July. The oncology team at Los Angeles Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks.
Gerald is 58, 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 him.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Los Angeles Cancer Centre 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $4,350 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $410
• Transport to Los Angeles Cancer Centre: $600
• Household costs while unable to work: $2,400
• Scans and lab work: $940
Thank you so much.
