Edilene was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in July. The oncology team at Niterói Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Edilene is 42, worked as a primary school teacher until July, 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 Niterói Cancer Centre 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $2,950 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $260 • Transport to Niterói Cancer Centre: $280 • Household costs while unable to work: $390 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,020 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Rosângela

  • Hope it all works out, Rosângela. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.

    • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.

      • hope the doctors have good news. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out

        • Stay strong, Rosângela. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

          • Hope it all works out, Rosângela. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings

            • Hang in there, Rosângela. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

              • you're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Los Angeles
