Help Rose through 12 rounds of treatment for thyroid cancer
Rose is facing thyroid cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
Anywhere in the world1,550 views
Rose was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in July. The oncology team at Pasig Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Rose is 50, worked as a hairdresser until July, 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 Pasig Cancer Centre 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,350 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $650
• Scans and lab work: $240
• Transport to Pasig Cancer Centre: $140
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $160
• Household costs while unable to work: $160
I hope life is good to you.

This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Pasig
Good luck, Remedios. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Guarulhos
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Pasig
Thanks for sharing this, Remedios. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update
Sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Pasig
