Help Noel through 8 rounds of treatment for Hodgkin lymphoma
Noel is facing Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
Anywhere in the world2,415 views
Noel was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in May. The oncology team at Quezon City University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks.
Noel is 50, worked as a bakery worker until May, 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 Quezon City University Hospital 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 $1,550 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $120
• Household costs while unable to work: $350
• Scans and lab work: $200
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $880
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

You're not alone, Marites. Hope you get there. All the best.
Sending strength, Marites. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Radom.
hope it all works out, Marites. Get well soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Hope it all works out, Marites. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.

Sending strength, Marites. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Put this on a community board in Belo Horizonte this morning. Thinking of Quezon City.
