Help Nicholas through 10 rounds of treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia

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

Nicholas was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in July. The oncology team at the Liverpool Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Nicholas is 31, worked as a primary school teacher until July, 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 Liverpool Oncology Institute 5 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 $2,450 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $300 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,750 • Transport to the Liverpool Oncology Institute: $400 With deep gratitude, Courtney

    Wishing you the best, Courtney. Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it

    • Praying for you, Courtney. Hope the doctors have good news. Love from Stuttgart.

      • Thinking of you, Courtney. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update

        • Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless

            Hope it all works out, Courtney. Hope you get there.

            • So sorry you're going through this, Courtney. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.

              • You're not alone. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Nottingham but we're thinking of you.

                • Thinking of you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Liverpool.

                  • Good luck, Courtney. Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.

                    • Wishing you peace, Courtney. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out.
