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

Envigado
Pablo was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at Envigado Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Pablo is 27, worked as a nurse 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 Envigado Regional Medical Center 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 $2,000 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $990 • Scans and lab work: $370 • Transport to Envigado Regional Medical Center: $220 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $120 • Household costs while unable to work: $300 Thanks for reading all this.
