Leonardo was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in August. The oncology team at Nottingham Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Leonardo is 27, worked as a primary school teacher until August, 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 Nottingham Cancer Centre 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 $7,850 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,550 • Scans and lab work: $1,150 • Transport to Nottingham Cancer Centre: $440 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $640 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,070 Every share and every dollar helps.
