Standing with Hae-won: colon cancer treatment costs
Supporting Hae-won through colon cancer: medication, transport to Seoul Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
🇰🇷 Seoul, Seoul, South Korea2,116 views
Hae-won was diagnosed with colon cancer in July. The oncology team at Seoul Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Hae-won is 55, worked as a bakery worker 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 Seoul Cancer Centre 5 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 $4,700 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,300
• Transport to Seoul Cancer Centre: $320
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,080
With deep gratitude,
Tae-yang
