Standing with Yuki: kidney cancer treatment costs
Supporting Yuki through kidney cancer: medication, transport to the Tokyo Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.
🇯🇵 Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan2,372 views
Yuki was diagnosed with kidney cancer in November. The oncology team at the Tokyo Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in February. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Yuki is 24, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until November, 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 the Tokyo Oncology Institute 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $6,650 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,700
• Scans and lab work: $1,000
• Household costs while unable to work: $950
Thanks for reading all this.

Sending love, Kaito. Shared this with my family
Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Liverpool.
