Renato's acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment fund
Supporting Renato through acute lymphoblastic leukemia: medication, transport to São Paulo Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
🇧🇷 Brazil2,365 views
In August I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. My oncology team at São Paulo Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in October. I was told to expect about 12 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 34, I worked as a hairdresser until August, and I have been the main earner for my household.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to São Paulo Regional Medical Center 5 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly.
My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $2,500 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $330
• Household costs while unable to work: $480
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,400
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $290
Thanks for reading all this.

Sending strength. Shared this with my family. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Take care
Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Lecce
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 10 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Likoni.
You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Bang Khen.
sending strength. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Faisalabad donated after I showed her your page.
Take care, Renato. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care.
