Help Oliver through 8 rounds of treatment for Hodgkin lymphoma
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Nottingham Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Oliver was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in June. The oncology team at Nottingham Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Oliver is 34, worked as a tailor until June, 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 Nottingham Cancer Centre 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 $8,200 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $7,000
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $410
• Transport to Nottingham Cancer Centre: $790
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Sending love, Travis. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 35 people at work. Love from Thủ Đức.
Praying for you, Travis. Looking forward to the next update
Hope the doctors have good news. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out.
what exactly is the $8,200 for?
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. chemotherapy and medication not covered comes first ($7,000) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
Wishing Oliver a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Blessings.
Hope this works out for you. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Nottingham
Hope the doctors have good news. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Nottingham.
Good luck, Travis. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Bahir Dar this morning.
Hope it all works out. Hope the doctors have good news. Greetings from Birmingham
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Nottingham.
