Help Isabelle through 10 rounds of treatment for stage 3 ovarian cancer

10 rounds of treatment are planned at Lowell University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Isabelle was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in March. The oncology team at Lowell University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in June. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Isabelle is 31, worked as a taxi driver until March, 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 Lowell University Hospital 5 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $9,900 goes: • Scans and lab work: $660 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,750 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $7,490 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Ethan

  1. Thank you all. We're at 65% now ($6,423). I'm honestly stunned. the first invoice got paid this week.

  2. 43% there. I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. Thank you.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($2,465 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

        sending love, Ethan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Corpus Christi but we're thinking of you. All the best.
