Travis's stomach cancer treatment fund
Supporting Travis through stomach cancer: medication, transport to San Diego Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
🇺🇸 California, United States5,218 views
Travis was diagnosed with stomach cancer in December. The oncology team at San Diego Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in March. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Travis is 44, worked as a bus conductor until December, 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 San Diego 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 his shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $12,850 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $8,250
• Scans and lab work: $1,200
• Transport to San Diego Regional Medical Center: $770
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $560
• Household costs while unable to work: $2,070
Thanks for reading all this.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 29 years in nursing I know how hard it is to ask for anything
Take care, Riley. Wishing Travis a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best.
Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Dwarka
What exactly is the $12,850 for?

Take care, Riley. Looking forward to the next update. Take care.
Keep going. Wishing Travis a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Wishing you the best, Riley. Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Caxias do Sul
Praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Spokane this morning. Thinking of San Diego!
keep going. Get well soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
