Help Pilar through 10 rounds of treatment for stomach cancer

Pilar is facing stomach cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Móstoles
Pilar was diagnosed with stomach cancer in March. The oncology team at Móstoles Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in July. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Pilar is 34, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Móstoles Regional Medical Center 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $6,750 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,400 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $570 • Household costs while unable to work: $750 • Scans and lab work: $1,030 Thanks for reading all this. - Ángel

    Praying for you, Ángel. 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. Blessings

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Pilar.
