Irina's kidney cancer treatment fund
Supporting Irina through kidney cancer: medication, transport to the Novosibirsk Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.
🇷🇺 Novosibirsk Oblast, Russia1,054 views
Irina was diagnosed with kidney cancer in August. The oncology team at the Novosibirsk Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Irina is 43, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until August, 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 the Novosibirsk Oncology Institute 4 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 $3,650 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,750
• Scans and lab work: $310
• Transport to the Novosibirsk Oncology Institute: $320
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $270
Thank you so much.
- Larysa

Thinking of you. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Madrid
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Novosibirsk Oblast. I'll ask around and let you know!
Any update on how things are going in Novosibirsk?
wishing Irina a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry

Best of luck, Larysa. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Irina?
hope things get better soon. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Davao City so I could bring a meal.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Irina.
It's all in the list in the story. chemotherapy and medication not covered is the big one at $2,750, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Appreciate you taking the time.
hang in there. Get well soon.
praying for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Take care, Larysa. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. All the best.
Hope the doctors have good news. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Campinas.
Wishing you peace, Larysa. Your post was clear and honest. God bless.
thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless.
