Standing with Zoe: non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs
Zoe is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇺🇸 Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States1,590 views
Zoe was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in December. The oncology team at Albuquerque University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in April. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Zoe is 58, worked as a bank teller until December, 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 Albuquerque University Hospital 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 $9,950 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $630
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $8,750
• Transport to Albuquerque University Hospital: $570
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hope it all works out, Paisley. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Laval!
