Tiffany's stage 2 breast cancer treatment fund
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Newcastle Cancer Centre; we are asking for help with the costs insurance does not cover.
🇦🇺 New South Wales, Australia8,271 views
Tiffany was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in August. The oncology team at Newcastle Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Tiffany is 26, worked as a bank teller until August, 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 Newcastle Cancer Centre 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 $10,500 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $6,250
• Scans and lab work: $1,300
• Transport to Newcastle Cancer Centre: $1,100
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $590
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,260
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
