Help me through 10 rounds of treatment for cervical cancer

10 rounds of treatment are planned at Moscow Regional Medical Center; we are asking for help with the costs insurance does not cover.

Moscow
In June I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. My oncology team at Moscow Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in September. I was told to expect about 10 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 25, I worked as a tailor until June, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Moscow Regional Medical Center 2 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,100 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $105 • Scans and lab work: $470 • Transport to Moscow Regional Medical Center: $160 • Household costs while unable to work: $365 Glad we found this place. - Oleksandr

Updates from Oleksandr

  1. Small update. $721 so far, I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts.

  2. 63% there. the first invoice got paid this week. Thank you.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($210 in total) I made the first payment toward transport to Moscow Regional Medical Center. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Oleksandr

    • Oleksandr SergeevOwnerAnswer

      Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team is $105 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Let me know if you want more detail.
