Standing with Patrick: stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment costs
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Glasgow University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Patrick was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in January. The oncology team at Glasgow University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in April. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Patrick is 57, worked as a primary school teacher until January, 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 Glasgow University Hospital 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $6,250 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,400
• Scans and lab work: $990
• Transport to Glasgow University Hospital: $410
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $420
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,030
Thank you for reading my story.

Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from San Jose.
Praying for you, Kendall. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Hope it all works out, Kendall. Hope the doctors have good news. God bless.
