Help Wesley through 12 rounds of treatment for thyroid cancer
Wesley is facing thyroid cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇦🇺 Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia389 views
Wesley was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at Gold Coast University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Wesley is 55, worked as a shop owner 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 Gold Coast 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 $9,850 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,500
• Scans and lab work: $1,600
• Transport to Gold Coast University Hospital: $580
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $920
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,250
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
