Leandro's stomach cancer treatment fund

Leandro was diagnosed with stomach cancer in June. The oncology team at Contagem Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Leandro is 33, worked as a hairdresser until June, 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 Contagem Regional Medical Center 4 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $2,400 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,150 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $125 • Household costs while unable to work: $560 • Scans and lab work: $565 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Márcia
