Lidia was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in July. The oncology team at the Latina Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Lidia is 36, worked as a nurse until July, 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 the Latina Oncology Institute 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $8,450 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,000 • Scans and lab work: $680 • Transport to the Latina Oncology Institute: $330 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $200 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,240 Thanks for reading all this.

  • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Lidia

    • Chemotherapy and medication not covered is $6,000 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks for asking.

  • Sending love, Ruslan. Looking forward to the next update. Blessings

    • Good luck, Ruslan. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Warri.

      • Sending strength, Ruslan. Get well soon. Blessings.

        • Rooting for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Take care

          • get well soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

            • praying for you, Ruslan. Shared this with my family. After 10 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything
