Thomas's stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment fund
Thomas is facing stage 3 ovarian cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇺🇸 United States3,986 views
Thomas was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in May. The oncology team at New Orleans Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Thomas is 40, worked as a bank teller until May, 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 New Orleans Regional Medical Center 2 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $4,150 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $410
• Transport to New Orleans Regional Medical Center: $1,050
• Household costs while unable to work: $2,690
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near New Orleans.
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team, advice is welcome too. Thanks for asking.
Keep going, Everett. Hope this works out for you.
you're not alone, Everett. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
