6th of October City
In January I was diagnosed with colon cancer. My oncology team at the 6th of October City Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in April. I was told to expect about 10 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 34, I worked as a nurse until January, 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 the 6th of October City Oncology Institute 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,500 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,300 • Transport to the 6th of October City Oncology Institute: $100 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $100 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
