Standing with Carter: prostate cancer treatment costs
Supporting Carter through prostate cancer: medication, transport to Nottingham University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.
🇬🇧 Nottingham, England, United Kingdom2,812 views
Carter was diagnosed with prostate cancer in July. The oncology team at Nottingham University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Carter is 41, worked as a nurse until July, 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 Nottingham University Hospital 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $8,050 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $600
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,800
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,750
• Scans and lab work: $900
Thanks for being kind about this.
