Canberra patient needs urgent grocery support during cancer treatment
GIVIT
A Canberra resident undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy at the Capital Region Cancer Centre is facing increasing financial strain while focusing on their treatment and recovery. Frequent hospital visits are essential, but the cost of fuel has become a significant barrier to attending appointments.
With reduced capacity to work due to treatment side effects and ongoing medical expenses, the household budget is stretched beyond its limit. After paying for rent, utilities, and basic living costs, there is little left to cover fuel for regular travel to treatment.
They urgently need financial assistance for fuel to attend regular radiotherapy and chemotherapy sessions at the Capital Region Cancer Centre. This support will help prevent missed treatments and ease the heavy financial burden placed on the household.
