Help Nicholas through 8 rounds of treatment for stage 3 ovarian cancer
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Sheffield Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇬🇧 Sheffield, England, United Kingdom889 views
Nicholas was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in April. The oncology team at Sheffield Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Nicholas is 26, worked as a hairdresser until April, 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 Sheffield Cancer Centre 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $2,650 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $760
• Transport to Sheffield Cancer Centre: $850
• Scans and lab work: $1,040
Thank you for reading my story.
