Help Joshua through 6 rounds of treatment for a rare sarcoma
Supporting Joshua through a rare sarcoma: medication, transport to Jacksonville Cancer Centre, and living costs while He can't work.
🇺🇸 Jacksonville, Florida, United States6,399 views
Joshua was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in June. The oncology team at Jacksonville Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Joshua is 35, worked as a cleaner at a hospital 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 Jacksonville Cancer Centre 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 his shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $10,700 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,900
• Scans and lab work: $1,400
• Transport to Jacksonville Cancer Centre: $1,050
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $850
• Household costs while unable to work: $2,500
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you peace, Dylan. I hope things turn around soon
Thinking of you, Dylan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together.
Hope things get better soon. Get well soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care
Praying for you, Dylan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Hope things get better soon, Dylan. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted. God bless.
You're not alone, Dylan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

Take care, Dylan. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Wish I lived closer to Brampton so I could bring a meal. Blessings
