Help Si-woo through 4 rounds of treatment for thyroid cancer
Supporting Si-woo through thyroid cancer: medication, transport to the Seoul Oncology Institute, and living costs while He cannot work.
🇰🇷 South Korea7,922 views
Si-woo was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in March. The oncology team at the Seoul Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in June. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Si-woo is 26, 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 him.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to the Seoul Oncology Institute 3 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 $4,450 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $490
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,500
• Transport to the Seoul Oncology Institute: $340
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,120
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
