Standing with Beau: acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment costs
Supporting Beau through acute lymphoblastic leukemia: medication, transport to Sydney Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He cannot work.
🇦🇺 Sydney, New South Wales, Australia4,882 views
Beau was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in August. The oncology team at Sydney Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Beau is 40, worked as a taxi driver until August, 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 Sydney Regional Medical Center 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 his shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $10,000 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,000
• Scans and lab work: $1,050
• Transport to Sydney Regional Medical Center: $560
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $820
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,570
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 20 people at work. All the best.
Best of luck, Ximena. Hope the doctors have good news. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Sydney.
Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Sydney.
wishing you peace. Wishing Beau a smooth procedure and a full recovery. It's not much but it's yours. God bless
Good luck. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
