Soledad was diagnosed with stomach cancer in June. The oncology team at Xalapa Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Soledad is 33, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until June, 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 Xalapa 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $2,650 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,600 • Scans and lab work: $360 • Transport to Xalapa Regional Medical Center: $180 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $100 • Household costs while unable to work: $410 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Updates from Rubén

  1. Update from Xalapa: I made the first payment toward household costs while unable to work. We're at 13% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
