Sophie was diagnosed with prostate cancer in September. The oncology team at Wiesbaden University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in December. She will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Sophie is 31, worked as a bank teller until September, 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 Wiesbaden 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $2,850 goes: • Scans and lab work: $1,050 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,500 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $300 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Sabine

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

    • Sabine HornOwnerAnswerID verified

      Sure. The biggest one is scans and lab work, $1,050. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks, that means a lot.

  • Keep going. Wishing Sophie a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Thinking of Wiesbaden

    • Hope things get better soon. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Ottawa.

      • sending love. Shared it with a few friends. Take care.

        • Rooting for you, Sabine. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Please keep us posted
