Help Mateus through 4 rounds of treatment for prostate cancer
Supporting Mateus through prostate cancer: medication, transport to Santos Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
🇧🇷 Santos, São Paulo, Brazil1,882 views
Mateus was diagnosed with prostate cancer in August. The oncology team at Santos Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Mateus is 41, worked as a bus conductor until August, 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 Santos 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $3,800 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,300
• Scans and lab work: $480
• Transport to Santos Regional Medical Center: $260
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $230
• Household costs while unable to work: $530
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
