Rodrigo's cervical cancer treatment fund
Supporting Rodrigo through cervical cancer: medication, transport to the La Plata Oncology Institute, and living costs while He can't work.
🇦🇷 La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina1,181 views
Rodrigo was diagnosed with cervical cancer in October. The oncology team at the La Plata Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in December. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Rodrigo is 55, worked as a primary school teacher until October, 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 the La Plata Oncology Institute 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 $800 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $520
• Scans and lab work: $170
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $110
Thank you so much.

Stay strong. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Rooting for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
Wishing you peace. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
You're not alone, Rosa. This could happen to any of us. Love from Lecce.
you're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Blessings
thanks for sharing this, Rosa. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Tarragona.
So sorry you're going through this, Rosa. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
