Salé
In October I was diagnosed with colon cancer. My oncology team at Salé Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in January. I was told to expect about 12 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 28, I worked as a bus conductor until October, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Salé Cancer Centre 2 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,500 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $660 • Scans and lab work: $210 • Transport to Salé Cancer Centre: $160 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $105 • Household costs while unable to work: $365 With deep gratitude, Inès

Updates from Inès

  1. Update from Salé: I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. We're at 47% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 33% now ($500). I'm honestly stunned. the first invoice got paid this week.
