Help Gerald through 6 rounds of treatment for Hodgkin lymphoma
Supporting Gerald through Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Dasmariñas University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.
Anywhere in the world1,968 views
Gerald was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in June. The oncology team at Dasmariñas University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Gerald is 56, worked as a hairdresser until June, 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 Dasmariñas University Hospital 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,900 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,050
• Scans and lab work: $230
• Transport to Dasmariñas University Hospital: $135
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $65
• Household costs while unable to work: $420
Glad we found this place.

wishing you the best, Allan. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
Wishing you the best. Hope you get there. Sent it to 32 people at work.
so sorry you're going through this, Allan. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Tarkwa.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Dasmariñas.
stay strong, Allan. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Rooting for you, Allan. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Dasmariñas.
Hang in there, Allan. I hope things turn around soon. My husband and I read this together
Sending strength, Allan. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 24 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything!
