12 rounds of treatment are planned at Leicester Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Liliana was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at Leicester Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Liliana is 27, worked as a tailor 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 Leicester Regional Medical Center 5 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 $6,650 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,250 • Scans and lab work: $700 • Transport to Leicester Regional Medical Center: $770 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $770 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,160 I hope life is good to you.

Updates from Doris

  1. Update from Leicester: I made the first payment toward scans and lab work. We're at 17% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 41% now ($2,707). I'm honestly stunned. the first invoice got paid this week.
