Help Ye-jin through 10 rounds of treatment for colon cancer

Ye-jin is facing colon cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Gangnam
Ye-jin was diagnosed with colon cancer in December. The oncology team at Gangnam Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in March. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Ye-jin is 41, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until December, 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 Gangnam Cancer Centre 2 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $3,550 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $270 • Transport to Gangnam Cancer Centre: $290 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,350 • Scans and lab work: $640 Thanks for being kind about this. - Hye-jin
