Jodies Progress
4 December 2018
Jodie would like to thank every single person that has made a donation so far, the family is overwhelmed with all the love and support shown at this difficult time. Unfortunately for Jodie the drug Perjeta is not fully funded for patients before surgery (neoadjuvant treatment) so the donations made so far have gone to covering the costs of the treatment and private oncology fees which totaled $20,000.
Jodie also ended up in hospital for over a week with pneumonia so the donations have helped incredibly with loss of income, travel, parking, medication and living costs.
Good news is though the cancer drugs and chemo are working and the tumors have shrunk! So all looking good for surgery end of January which once again the donations made will come in extremely handy to cover cost of loss of income and living costs.
