Help Jenny through 12 rounds of treatment for stomach cancer

Supporting Jenny through stomach cancer: medication, transport to the New York Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.

Jenny was diagnosed with stomach cancer in August. The oncology team at the New York Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Jenny is 43, worked as a nurse until August, 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 New York Oncology Institute 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $4,650 goes: • Scans and lab work: $1,700 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $520 • Transport to the New York Oncology Institute: $870 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,560 With deep gratitude, Mercy
