Michel's prostate cancer treatment fund
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Nice Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Michel was diagnosed with prostate cancer in June. The oncology team at Nice Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Michel is 55, worked as a construction supervisor 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 Nice Regional Medical Center 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $4,100 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,600
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $330
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,170
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
