Standing with Werner: thyroid cancer treatment costs
Supporting Werner through thyroid cancer: medication, transport to Munich Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
🇩🇪 Germany2,360 views
Werner was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at Munich Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Werner is 33, worked as a primary school teacher until August, 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 Munich Regional Medical Center 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $2,900 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $480
• Scans and lab work: $780
• Household costs while unable to work: $770
• Transport to Munich Regional Medical Center: $870
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Munich.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Munich
Thank you. If you're in Munich I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
Keep going, Gabriele. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together.
your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Warri!
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Bangkok but we're thinking of you. God bless
Wishing Werner a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Greetings from Lahore.
Keep going, Gabriele. I hope things turn around soon. After 13 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Praying for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Munich.
Best of luck. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Munich.
sending strength, Gabriele. I hope things turn around soon. All the best
Hang in there. Wishing Werner a smooth procedure and a full recovery
