Supporting Scarlett through cervical cancer: medication, transport to the Brampton Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.

Brampton
Scarlett was diagnosed with cervical cancer in May. The oncology team at the Brampton Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Scarlett is 24, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until May, 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 the Brampton 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $7,250 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,250 • Scans and lab work: $960 • Transport to the Brampton Oncology Institute: $880 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $440 • Household costs while unable to work: $720 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Randall

    Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
