4 rounds of treatment are planned at Newcastle upon Tyne University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Josephine was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in June. The oncology team at Newcastle upon Tyne University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Josephine is 29, worked as a farmer until June, 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 Newcastle upon Tyne University Hospital 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 $6,600 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,950 • Scans and lab work: $1,400 • Transport to Newcastle upon Tyne University Hospital: $600 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $620 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,030 Thanks for reading all this.
