Julieta's cervical cancer treatment fund

Julieta is facing cervical cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Fresno
In August I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. My oncology team at Fresno Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in November. I was told to expect about 10 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 54, I worked as a taxi driver until August, 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 Fresno Regional Medical Center 3 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 $3,100 goes: • Transport to Fresno Regional Medical Center: $1,050 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $480 • Scans and lab work: $1,570 With deep gratitude, Julieta

  • Sending good thoughts. Wishing Julieta a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.

    • Hang in there, Julieta. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you

      • Is transport to Fresno Regional Medical Center the biggest cost or is there more coming?

        • The list at the bottom is the whole picture. transport to Fresno Regional Medical Center is the biggest at $1,050. Fair thing to want to know.

      • Hope things get better soon, Julieta. Hope the doctors have good news. My husband and I read this together. All the best.

        • look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Thinking of Fresno.

          • Looking forward to the next update. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Birmingham
