Kathleen was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in August. The oncology team at Davao City Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Kathleen is 53, worked as a cleaner at a hospital 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 Davao City Regional Medical Center 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 $450 goes: • Scans and lab work: $155 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $110 • Transport to Davao City Regional Medical Center: $185 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Paolo

    Wishing Kathleen a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't give up. God bless.

    • Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Davao City

      • any update on how things are going in Davao City?

        • Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Davao City.

          • Take care, Paolo. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Cambridge.

            • Sending good thoughts. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
