Madelyn's cervical cancer treatment fund
6 rounds of treatment are planned at Mandurah Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Madelyn was diagnosed with cervical cancer in June. The oncology team at Mandurah Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Madelyn is 58, worked as a bank teller until June, 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 Mandurah Cancer Centre 2 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 $9,550 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,250
• Scans and lab work: $650
• Transport to Mandurah Cancer Centre: $860
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $320
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,470
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thank you. If you're in Mandurah I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
