Ming's stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment fund
Supporting Ming through stage 3 ovarian cancer: medication, transport to Syracuse University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.
Anywhere in the world6,884 views
Ming was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in August. The oncology team at Syracuse University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Ming is 36, worked as a bakery worker 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 Syracuse University Hospital 3 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 $13,000 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $8,750
• Scans and lab work: $730
• Transport to Syracuse University Hospital: $980
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $400
• Household costs while unable to work: $2,140
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you the best, Xue. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Syracuse.
wishing you the best, Xue. Hope this works out for you. Love from Pune.
Rooting for you, Xue. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Syracuse.
Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Syracuse.
Keep going, Xue. Get well soon. Greetings from Leicester
best of luck, Xue. Hope you get there. God bless.
