Help Hugo through 12 rounds of treatment for thyroid cancer

Hugo is facing thyroid cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Hugo was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in March. The oncology team at León Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Hugo is 37, worked as a shop owner until March, 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 León Cancer Centre 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 $2,900 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,550 • Scans and lab work: $210 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $140 Thanks for being kind about this. - Araceli
