Standing with Magdalena: colon cancer treatment costs

Supporting Magdalena through colon cancer: medication, transport to Wrocław Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.

Wrocław
In June I was diagnosed with colon cancer. My oncology team at Wrocław Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in October. I was told to expect about 7 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 47, I worked as a primary school teacher until June, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Wrocław Cancer Centre 5 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,800 goes: • Scans and lab work: $710 • Transport to Wrocław Cancer Centre: $280 • Household costs while unable to work: $640 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $170 With deep gratitude, Magdalena

    is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Magdalena

    • Magdalena Krystyna WysockiOwnerAnswerID verified

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. scans and lab work comes first ($710) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
