8 rounds of treatment are planned at Södertälje University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Södertälje
Lovisa was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in July. The oncology team at Södertälje University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Lovisa is 33, worked as a bank teller 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 Södertälje University Hospital 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 $9,350 goes: • Transport to Södertälje University Hospital: $870 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,750 • Scans and lab work: $1,250 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $480 Thanks for reading all this. - Oskar
