Dear friends,
This is what Ariadna experienced after being sent from one private and expensive clinic to another. Ariadna’s mom stayed by her side throughout her grueling treatment, which included chemotherapy every three weeks and hospital visits for follow-up testing.
The care wasn’t free, and the bills were stacking up. But with help from Compañeros En Salud, as Partners In Health is known in Mexico, affording survival became possible.

Accompaniment: walking side-by-side with patients |
From diagnosis to chemotherapy, Compañeros En Salud (CES) was there to support Ariadna and her mother—and not just medically.
The CES team got Ariadna’s family food, transportation, and lodging near the hospital—free of charge, helping them overcome common barriers to health care for patients living in poverty. Monthly donors provided the funding.
“The support that Compañeros En Salud has given us has been very valuable,” Ariadna’s mother shared. “I really don’t know what we would have done.” |
You can accompany patients, too. |
