Mateo's stage 2 breast cancer treatment fund

10 rounds of treatment are planned at Dayton Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

In June I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. My oncology team at Dayton Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in October. I was told to expect about 10 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 50, I worked as a primary school teacher until June, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Dayton Regional Medical Center 3 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $7,600 goes: • Transport to Dayton Regional Medical Center: $960 • Scans and lab work: $680 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,250 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,710 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    hope the doctors have good news. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Los Angeles.
