10 rounds of treatment are planned at Southampton Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Isaiah was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in June. The oncology team at Southampton Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Isaiah is 50, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Southampton 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $10,750 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $7,000 • Scans and lab work: $1,400 • Transport to Southampton Cancer Centre: $390 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $280 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,680 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Beau

          You're not alone. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Santos.

          • Sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings

            • Rooting for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
