Standing with Pauline: thyroid cancer treatment costs
4 rounds of treatment are planned at Lyon Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Pauline was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at Lyon Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Pauline is 24, worked as a nurse until August, 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 Lyon 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 her shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $9,850 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $1,050
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,250
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $480
• Household costs while unable to work: $2,070
I hope life is good to you.

Sending strength, Solène. Your post was clear and honest. After 22 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Take care, Solène. Hope the doctors have good news. Love from Epe
Good luck. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Solène. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 36 people at work!
So sorry you're going through this. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't give up.
Stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Lyon
Wishing you peace, Solène. Wishing Pauline a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Wishing Pauline a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Surat
You're not alone, Solène. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
