Standing with Silviu: thyroid cancer treatment costs
10 rounds of treatment are planned at Iași University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇷🇴 Iași, Iași, Romania1,925 views
Silviu was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in July. The oncology team at Iași University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Silviu is 39, worked as a hairdresser until July, 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 Iași University Hospital 3 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 $2,950 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $600
• Household costs while unable to work: $670
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,680
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Iași.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Silviu?
Thank you. If you're in Iași I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
thinking of you, Georgiana. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Abbottabad donated after I showed her your page.
it takes guts to ask. Well done. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Iași.
How is Silviu doing now?
Rooting for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Iași.
Keep going, Georgiana. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless.
Hope you get there. Thinking of Iași
Sending good thoughts, Georgiana. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Rooting for you, Georgiana. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best
