Standing with Irina: stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment costs

6 rounds of treatment are planned at the Iași Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Irina was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in July. The oncology team at the Iași Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Irina is 43, worked as a bus conductor 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 the Iași Oncology Institute 3 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 $2,400 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,000 • Scans and lab work: $550 • Transport to the Iași Oncology Institute: $350 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $185 • Household costs while unable to work: $315 Thank you so much.
