Fadi's early-stage lung cancer treatment fund

10 rounds of treatment are planned at Heliopolis Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Fadi was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in August. The oncology team at Heliopolis Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Fadi is 43, worked as a bank teller until August, 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 Heliopolis Cancer Centre 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 $950 goes: • Transport to Heliopolis Cancer Centre: $85 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $750 • Scans and lab work: $115 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Hana
