Alamin was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in March. The oncology team at Mumbai Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in June. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Alamin is 37, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until March, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Mumbai Regional Medical Center 5 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly. We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,300 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $960 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $70 • Scans and lab work: $170 • Transport to Mumbai Regional Medical Center: $100 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    Thinking of you and your family, Sharmila. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Wrocław.

    • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Alamin

      • Sure. The biggest one is chemotherapy and medication not covered, $960. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. It helps to be asked.

    • Hope the doctors have good news. It's not much but it's yours. All the best

      • Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Mumbai

        • Best of luck, Sharmila. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Mumbai.

          • Hope things get better soon, Sharmila. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update

            • everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 10 people at work

              • take care, Sharmila. Wishing Alamin a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best

                • So sorry you're going through this, Sharmila. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 25 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless

                  • Take care. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Bogotá.

                    • You're not alone, Sharmila. This could happen to any of us

                      • thinking of you, Sharmila. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
