Edward's Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund
Supporting Edward through Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Tarkwa University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.
🇬🇭 Tarkwa, Western, Ghana1,214 views
Edward was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in September. The oncology team at Tarkwa University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Edward is 52, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until September, 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 Tarkwa University Hospital 4 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $1,700 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $180
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,250
• Transport to Tarkwa University Hospital: $150
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $120
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
