Krystyna's Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Poznań Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
Anywhere in the world1,500 views
Krystyna was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in September. The oncology team at Poznań Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Krystyna is 38, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until September, 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 Poznań Cancer Centre 5 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 $2,300 goes:
• Transport to Poznań Cancer Centre: $480
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $280
• Scans and lab work: $380
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,160
Glad we found this place.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Krystyna?
look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless
thinking of you and your family, Maja. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
Rooting for you, Maja. Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Poznań
Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier!
Sending strength, Maja. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Krystyna.
Sure. The biggest one is transport to Poznań Cancer Centre, $480. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks, that means a lot.
wishing you the best, Maja. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
thinking of you, Maja. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Latina.
wishing you the best, Maja. Hope you get there. All the best.
Wishing you peace. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Manchester
So sorry you're going through this, Maja. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
