Standing with Verónica: non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs
Supporting Verónica through non-Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Bucaramanga University Hospital, and living costs while She can't work.
Anywhere in the world3,375 views
Verónica was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Bucaramanga University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Verónica is 27, worked as a shop owner 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 Bucaramanga University Hospital 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 her shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $2,400 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $320
• Transport to Bucaramanga University Hospital: $260
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,650
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $170
Thanks for reading all this.

sending good thoughts, Graciela. Shared this with my family. Greetings from London
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Poitiers.
Wishing you peace, Graciela. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Bucaramanga.
You're not alone, Graciela. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless
You're not alone, Graciela. Hope this works out for you. Blessings.
Keep going, Graciela. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Medina.
