Standing with Aubree: stomach cancer treatment costs

Aubree is facing stomach cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Aubree was diagnosed with stomach cancer in August. The oncology team at Sheffield Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 6 weeks. Aubree is 46, worked as a nurse 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 Sheffield Regional Medical Center 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $11,450 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $7,250 • Scans and lab work: $1,600 • Transport to Sheffield Regional Medical Center: $840 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $390 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,370 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Grace

    Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Hồ Chí Minh City but we're thinking of you!

    • Sending good thoughts, Grace. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Jeddah.

      • Stay strong, Grace. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best

        • Rooting for you, Grace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
