Standing with Ariana: early-stage lung cancer treatment costs

Ariana was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in August. The oncology team at the Tallahassee Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in December. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Ariana is 40, worked as a construction supervisor until August, 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 Tallahassee Oncology Institute 2 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 $6,300 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,950 • Transport to the Tallahassee Oncology Institute: $950 • Scans and lab work: $1,400 Thanks for reading all this. - Caleb
