Standing with Lorenzo: stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment costs

Lorenzo was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in June. The oncology team at Mendoza Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Lorenzo is 50, worked as a bakery worker until June, 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 Mendoza Cancer Centre 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $2,500 goes: • Scans and lab work: $350 • Household costs while unable to work: $360 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,600 • Transport to Mendoza Cancer Centre: $190 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Mercedes
