Help Pamela through 10 rounds of treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia

10 rounds of treatment are planned at San Diego University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

San Diego
Pamela was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in March. The oncology team at San Diego University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in May. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Pamela is 35, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until March, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to San Diego University Hospital 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $8,200 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $1,250 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,500 • Transport to San Diego University Hospital: $450 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Silas
