Help Theo through 4 rounds of treatment for thyroid cancer

Supporting Theo through thyroid cancer: medication, transport to Berlin University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.

Berlin
Theo was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at Berlin University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Theo is 50, worked as a hairdresser 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 Berlin University Hospital 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 $4,900 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $320 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,300 • Scans and lab work: $1,280 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Patrick

    what exactly is the $4,900 for?

    • Patrick GrafOwnerAnswerID verified

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team comes first ($320) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.
