Standing with Jocelyn: multiple myeloma treatment costs
Supporting Jocelyn through multiple myeloma: medication, transport to Mandaue Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
Anywhere in the world764 views
Jocelyn was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in July. The oncology team at Mandaue Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Jocelyn is 28, 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 Mandaue Cancer Centre 4 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 $1,000 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $340
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $580
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
