Simone's stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment fund
Supporting Simone through stage 3 ovarian cancer: medication, transport to Rome University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.
🇮🇹 Rome, Lazio, Italy2,573 views
Simone was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in November. The oncology team at Rome University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in February. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Simone is 51, worked as a shop owner until November, 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 Rome University Hospital 4 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 $4,350 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $260
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,900
• Transport to Rome University Hospital: $390
• Scans and lab work: $800
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Thinking of you, Federico. Hope you get there. Blessings.
Hope the doctors have good news. We're a small family in Nagoya but we're thinking of you. All the best
sending love, Federico. Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Jimma so I could bring a meal
Sending good thoughts, Federico. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
Best of luck, Federico. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Kyiv donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Rome
