Help Janet through 6 rounds of treatment for colon cancer

Supporting Janet through colon cancer: medication, transport to the Fort Worth Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.

Janet was diagnosed with colon cancer in April. The oncology team at the Fort Worth Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in June. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Janet is 44, worked as a tailor until April, 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 the Fort Worth Oncology Institute 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $12,300 goes: • Transport to the Fort Worth Oncology Institute: $500 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $9,750 • Household costs while unable to work: $2,050 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Luke
