Riverside
Courtney was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in April. The oncology team at Riverside Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in July. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Courtney is 32, worked as a farmer 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 Riverside 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $5,700 goes: • Scans and lab work: $990 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $690 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,050 • Transport to Riverside Regional Medical Center: $970 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Christopher

  2. Thank you all. We're at 9% now ($503). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. - Christopher
