Chandler
Young-ja was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in July. The oncology team at Chandler Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Young-ja is 25, worked as a bus conductor until July, 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 Chandler Regional Medical Center 5 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $6,400 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $810 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,450 • Scans and lab work: $720 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,420 If you're reading this, thank you.
