Help Stefano through 6 rounds of treatment for thyroid cancer

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

Stefano was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at the Milan Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Stefano is 55, worked as a bank teller until August, 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 Milan 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 $2,350 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $1,350 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $370 • Transport to the Milan Oncology Institute: $630 Thanks for reading all this. - Concetta
