Standing with Halina: Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs
Halina is facing Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇵🇱 Poland3,028 views
Halina was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in May. The oncology team at Wrocław Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Halina is 57, worked as a bakery worker until May, 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 Wrocław 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $3,100 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,700
• Scans and lab work: $350
• Transport to Wrocław Cancer Centre: $310
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $330
• Household costs while unable to work: $410
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Kumasi donated after I showed her your page.
Wishing Halina a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'll check back for the next update. Take care.
