Standing with Gili: colon cancer treatment costs
Gili is facing colon cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Gili was diagnosed with colon cancer in August. The oncology team at Beersheba Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Gili is 38, worked as a bank teller until August, 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 Beersheba Cancer Centre 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $7,000 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $1,250
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,000
• Transport to Beersheba Cancer Centre: $750
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

how is Gili doing now?
Rooting for you. Get well soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Beersheba.
Wishing Gili a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We're a small family in Oakland but we're thinking of you
Sending love, Ido. Hope the doctors have good news
