Henry Schack's Medical Expenses

Donation protected

On December 28th, Henry was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia.  He has been sick off and on for the past month with cold/strep throat symptoms.  Nothing really seemed to help.  We brought him in to the doctor to find out that his white blood cell count was 173k versus a normal level of 20k.  The diagnosis was almost immediate and we were sent to Children's Hospital in Minneapolis.  Henry will have a spinal tap, bone marrow test, and Hickman inserted tomorrow.  Following these procedures, chemotherapy will also start tomorrow.  He will not be going home for a least a month and we plan to be doing treatments for at least six months.  Neither of us qualify for FMLA until March.  With the diagnosis happening at the end of the year, we are facing out of pocket maximum insurance deductibles of $5000 for both 2015 and 2016. Any help with medical expenses and lost wages is appreciated.  Thank you so much!
