Isa's prostate cancer treatment fund

4 rounds of treatment are planned at Eindhoven Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Isa was diagnosed with prostate cancer in February. The oncology team at Eindhoven Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in May. She will be away from work for about 6 weeks. Isa is 35, worked as a construction supervisor until February, 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 Eindhoven Cancer Centre 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $4,200 goes: • Scans and lab work: $1,550 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,150 • Transport to Eindhoven Cancer Centre: $1,050 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $450 Every share and every dollar helps. - Kees
