Standing with Anna: multiple myeloma treatment costs
Anna is facing multiple myeloma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇨🇦 Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada6,851 views
Anna was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in April. The oncology team at the Sherbrooke Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in July. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Anna is 36, worked as a hairdresser until April, 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 Sherbrooke 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $7,250 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,400
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $700
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,450
• Scans and lab work: $700
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Jakarta Barat donated after I showed her your page
