Anong's stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment fund
Anong is facing stage 3 ovarian cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇹🇭 Bangkok, Bangkok, Thailand1,816 views
In May I was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. My oncology team at Bangkok University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in August. I was told to expect about 7 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 30, I worked as a farmer until May, and I have been the main earner for my household.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Bangkok University Hospital 5 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly.
My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $2,750 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,300
• Transport to Bangkok University Hospital: $165
• Household costs while unable to work: $285
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
Updates from Anong
We're at 23% thanks to 13 of you. we've started the first stage. More news soon.
Thank you all. We're at 19% now ($528). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts.

Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
Praying for you, Anong. Get well soon. After 30 years in teaching I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
