Ye-jin's kidney cancer treatment fund

Ye-jin was diagnosed with kidney cancer in June. The oncology team at Mapo Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Ye-jin is 45, worked as a shop owner until June, 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 Mapo Cancer Centre 3 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 $4,250 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $580 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,900 • Household costs while unable to work: $770 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
