Standing with Susana: early-stage lung cancer treatment costs
4 rounds of treatment are planned at Santa Fe Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Susana was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in August. The oncology team at Santa Fe Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Susana is 33, worked as a construction supervisor 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 Santa Fe Regional Medical Center 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $2,950 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,800
• Scans and lab work: $250
• Transport to Santa Fe Regional Medical Center: $210
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $180
• Household costs while unable to work: $510
Thanks for being kind about this.

Rooting for you. Get well soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
Thinking of you. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Santa Fe!
Thinking of you, Carmen. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
Sending love, Carmen. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Warsaw.
Best of luck. Wishing Susana a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Please keep us posted.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Mekelle.
