Standing with Inés: acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment costs

Supporting Inés through acute lymphoblastic leukemia: medication, transport to La Plata University Hospital, and living costs while She can't work.

La Plata
Inés was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in July. The oncology team at La Plata University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Inés is 27, worked as a nurse 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 La Plata University Hospital 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 $2,750 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,050 • Scans and lab work: $290 • Household costs while unable to work: $210 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $200 I hope life is good to you.

  1. Quick update: $2,019 raised so far (73%). the plan for scans and lab work is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 60% funded and I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts.

  3. Thank you all. We're at 21% now ($582). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts.
