Canberra family needs urgent medication support during cancer treatment
GIVIT
A Canberra resident living with advanced cancer is undergoing ongoing treatment while caring for their family. Daily medications are critical to manage pain, symptoms, and treatment side effects, but the cost of pharmacy items has become unmanageable.
The family relies on a limited household income and rising living costs have stretched finances to breaking point. After paying for medical appointments, transport to treatment, utilities, and rent, there is little left for groceries or essential pharmacy needs. Without assistance, the family will be forced to choose between food and vital medications.
They are seeking support with critical medications and essential household items to remain at home and continue treatment with dignity. This assistance will ease financial stress, improve quality of life, and provide stability during an incredibly challenging time for the whole family.
