Jin-woo's non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund
Jin-woo is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇰🇷 Gangnam, Seoul, South Korea1,338 views
Jin-woo was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in February. The oncology team at Gangnam University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Jin-woo is 34, worked as a bakery worker until February, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Gangnam University Hospital 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 his shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $7,550 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,500
• Scans and lab work: $1,200
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $380
• Transport to Gangnam University Hospital: $470
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Take care, Seo-jun. It takes guts to ask. Well done. All the best
Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Sacramento.
