Jimena's acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment fund
Supporting Jimena through acute lymphoblastic leukemia: medication, transport to the Madrid Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.
🇪🇸 Madrid, Madrid, Spain2,318 views
Jimena was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in April. The oncology team at the Madrid Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in July. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Jimena is 29, worked as a bakery worker until April, 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 Madrid Oncology Institute 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,900 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $390
• Household costs while unable to work: $860
• Scans and lab work: $650
Thanks for being kind about this.

Wishing you peace, Cristian. Your post was clear and honest
Best of luck, Cristian. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier!
Sending good thoughts, Cristian. Shared this with my family
Praying for you, Cristian. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 15 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best
Get well soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Madrid.
Keep going, Cristian. Hope the doctors have good news. Thinking of Madrid.
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Los Angeles
