Remedios's acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment fund
10 rounds of treatment are planned at Los Angeles Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Remedios was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in March. The oncology team at Los Angeles Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in June. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Remedios is 57, worked as a shop owner until March, 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 Los Angeles 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $6,350 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,150
• Scans and lab work: $690
• Transport to Los Angeles Regional Medical Center: $750
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $750
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,010
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
