Berlin
Marie was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in December. The oncology team at Berlin Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in April. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Marie is 57, worked as a primary school teacher until December, 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 Berlin 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $8,150 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,250 • Scans and lab work: $1,300 • Transport to Berlin Regional Medical Center: $420 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $260 • Household costs while unable to work: $920 If you're reading this, thank you.

  • how is Marie doing now?

    • Hope it all works out, Tim. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in New Delhi this morning. Love from New Delhi.

      • praying for you, Tim. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

        • Hang in there, Tim. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Gaziantep.
