Standing with Landon: early-stage lung cancer treatment costs

6 rounds of treatment are planned at El Paso Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

El Paso
Landon was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in July. The oncology team at El Paso Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Landon is 31, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until July, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to El Paso Regional Medical Center 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 his shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $12,100 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $2,200 • Scans and lab work: $1,450 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $8,000 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $450 I hope life is good to you. - Jaxon

    Thinking of you and your family, Jaxon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope November is when things finally get easier.

        Wishing you peace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from San Fernando.
