Guadalupe
Mauricio was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in August. The oncology team at Guadalupe Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in December. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Mauricio is 38, worked as a taxi driver until August, 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 Guadalupe 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $2,600 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,150 • Scans and lab work: $570 • Transport to Guadalupe Cancer Centre: $160 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $160 • Household costs while unable to work: $560 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

      It's all in the list in the story. chemotherapy and medication not covered is the big one at $1,150, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks for looking so closely.

  • good luck. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Guadalupe.
