Help Jack through 6 rounds of treatment for a rare sarcoma
6 rounds of treatment are planned at Toronto University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇨🇦 Toronto, Ontario, Canada4,464 views
Jack was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in August. The oncology team at Toronto University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Jack is 46, worked as a shop owner until August, 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 Toronto University Hospital 2 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 $9,850 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,500
• Scans and lab work: $1,050
• Transport to Toronto University Hospital: $1,150
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $760
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,390
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Södertälje
Take care. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
what exactly is the $9,850 for?
Take care. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours
wishing you the best, Nevaeh. Get well soon.
sending love, Nevaeh. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Rochester this morning. Thinking of Toronto.
Sending good thoughts, Nevaeh. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
Wishing you the best. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Birmingham donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
