<div>Hello, my name is Bente and I am hoping to help my children's' father raise money to cover the incredibly expensive journey he has ahead to treat his recent diagnosis of CMML-1, a rare blood cancer, which is in the late phases. (They call high risk.)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The treatment is a pill you take at home and where it is not administered at the hospital they want him to co-pay $1500 a pill for chemotherapy; the total out of pocket cost per month is $7500. He will have the treatment of five pills every 28 days for at least 16 months.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Andy has not been working since January as a result of this and other medical issues. Andy's wife, Annis, has had to reduce her hours to support Andy with appointments and care taking.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is only one part of how they are being affected financially from this diagnosis and I don't think I know anyone who could afford to pay that cost <em>without</em> financial disruptions.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Andy is a friend to everyone he meets and did not deserve this devastating blow of first, the diagnosis, to now - the impossibly priced treatment to save his life. I know he has a lot of support here in Nova Scotia and that support extends across the world all the way to Australia. I am hoping people who know and love him will be willing to donate to help - absolutely no amount is too small!
</div>
