Help Michael through 12 rounds of treatment for a rare sarcoma

12 rounds of treatment are planned at the Toledo Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Toledo
Michael was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in August. The oncology team at the Toledo Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in December. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Michael is 26, worked as a construction supervisor 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 the Toledo Oncology Institute 4 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $5,950 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,250 • Household costs while unable to work: $950 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $480 • Transport to the Toledo Oncology Institute: $1,270 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Victoria
