Fighting a rare sarcoma: help Amit afford treatment in Rajkot
10 rounds of treatment are planned at Rajkot University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇮🇳 India1,063 views
Amit was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in May. The oncology team at Rajkot University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Amit is 53, worked as a primary school teacher until May, 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 Rajkot 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 $550 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $125
• Household costs while unable to work: $290
• Transport to Rajkot University Hospital: $135
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
