Willow's colon cancer treatment fund
Supporting Willow through colon cancer: medication, transport to Manchester Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
Anywhere in the world2,417 views
Willow was diagnosed with colon cancer in August. The oncology team at Manchester Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Willow is 45, worked as a shop owner 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 Manchester Cancer Centre 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $7,800 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,250
• Scans and lab work: $570
• Transport to Manchester Cancer Centre: $720
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $280
• Household costs while unable to work: $980
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending strength, Roman. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
You're not alone, Roman. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 9 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Pretoria!
Rooting for you, Roman. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Manchester.
take care. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home!
Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Manchester.
