Nora's kidney cancer treatment fund
12 rounds of treatment are planned at San Diego Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇺🇸 United States1,661 views
Nora was diagnosed with kidney cancer in June. The oncology team at San Diego Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Nora is 57, 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 San Diego Regional Medical Center 5 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 $4,700 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $1,400
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,650
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $510
• Transport to San Diego Regional Medical Center: $1,140

Good luck. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Munich.
I hope things turn around soon. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of San Diego
Thinking of you, Walker. This could happen to any of us. Love from Thiruvananthapuram
So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. Love from Nairobi
Thinking of you, Walker. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
