Entebbe
In May I was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma. My oncology team at Entebbe Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in August. I was told to expect about 8 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 31, I worked as a taxi driver 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 Entebbe Cancer Centre 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $350 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $40 • Transport to Entebbe Cancer Centre: $120 • Scans and lab work: $190 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - David

  • hope things get better soon, David. Shared it with a few friends.

    • Keep going, David. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.

      • Best of luck, David. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double

        • I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Moscow

            Best of luck. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Entebbe.
