Standing with Mónica: early-stage lung cancer treatment costs

Mónica was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in June. The oncology team at Rosario Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Mónica is 45, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until June, 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 Rosario Regional Medical Center 5 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $2,400 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,850 • Transport to Rosario Regional Medical Center: $185 • Scans and lab work: $270 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $95 Glad we found this place. - Alejandro
