Standing with Sophie: thyroid cancer treatment costs

Supporting Sophie through thyroid cancer: medication, transport to Los Angeles University Hospital, and living costs while She can't work.

Sophie was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in September. The oncology team at Los Angeles University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Sophie is 47, worked as a bakery worker until September, 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 Los Angeles 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $3,900 goes: • Scans and lab work: $1,650 • Transport to Los Angeles University Hospital: $720 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,530 Every share and every dollar helps. - Levi
