Standing with Samira: multiple myeloma treatment costs
Supporting Samira through multiple myeloma: medication, transport to Málaga University Hospital, and living costs while She can't work.
🇪🇸 Andalusia, Spain3,930 views
Samira was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in March. The oncology team at Málaga University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in May. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Samira is 34, worked as a shop owner until March, 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 Málaga 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $7,050 goes:
• Transport to Málaga University Hospital: $600
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,750
• Household costs while unable to work: $700
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Good news. Because of your gifts ($2,755 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
