Lillian was diagnosed with kidney cancer in July. The oncology team at Saint Paul Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Lillian is 50, worked as a construction supervisor until July, 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 Saint Paul Regional Medical Center 3 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 $9,000 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,750 • Scans and lab work: $1,150 • Transport to Saint Paul Regional Medical Center: $450 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $450 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,200 Thanks for being kind about this.

  • sending strength, John. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier

    • Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Marseille

      • hope it all works out, John. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Jaipur so I could bring a meal. God bless
