Standing with Tyler: Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs

Tyler was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in May. The oncology team at Swansea Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Tyler is 57, worked as a nurse until May, 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 Swansea Cancer Centre 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $3,650 goes: • Transport to Swansea Cancer Centre: $500 • Scans and lab work: $630 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $790 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,730 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
