Standing with Diego: Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs

Diego was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in February. The oncology team at Barcelona Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Diego is 56, worked as a hairdresser until February, 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 Barcelona 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 $3,350 goes: • Transport to Barcelona Regional Medical Center: $330 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $300 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,720 Glad we found this place. - Rodrigo
