Standing with Paolo: non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs

4 rounds of treatment are planned at Calamba Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Calamba
Paolo was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in November. The oncology team at Calamba Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in March. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Paolo is 55, worked as a taxi driver until November, 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 Calamba 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,350 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $130 • Scans and lab work: $165 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $890 • Household costs while unable to work: $165 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
