Standing with Isabella: stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment costs

Isabella is facing stage 3 ovarian cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Fresno
Isabella was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in August. The oncology team at Fresno Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Isabella is 25, worked as a bus conductor 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 Fresno Regional Medical Center 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 $10,150 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,350 • Scans and lab work: $1,400 • Transport to Fresno Regional Medical Center: $1,150 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $750 • Household costs while unable to work: $2,500 Thanks for reading all this. - Jackson

    What's already covered and what's the $10,150 for?

    • Jackson W. CookOwnerAnswer

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. chemotherapy and medication not covered comes first ($4,350) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Let me know if you want more detail.

  • Lorena Tatiane Ribeiro

    Wishing you the best, Jackson. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Tampa so I could bring a meal.

    • Chebet Eunice Nabwire

      Thinking of you, Jackson. Hope this works out for you. God bless
