Roman's prostate cancer treatment fund

Roman is facing prostate cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Houston
Roman was diagnosed with prostate cancer in August. The oncology team at Houston Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Roman is 34, worked as a bus conductor 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 Houston 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 his shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $8,300 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,000 • Scans and lab work: $1,850 • Transport to Houston Regional Medical Center: $850 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $470 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,130 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
