Maverick was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in July. The oncology team at San Diego University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Maverick is 46, worked as a bakery worker until July, 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 San Diego University Hospital 2 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 $8,450 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,250 • Scans and lab work: $850 • Transport to San Diego University Hospital: $750 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $370 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,230 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
