Fighting a rare sarcoma: help Mahin afford treatment in Pune

In June I was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma. My oncology team at Pune Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in August. I was told to expect about 4 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 41, I worked as a hairdresser until June, 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 Pune Regional Medical Center 4 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 $1,150 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $650 • Scans and lab work: $120 • Transport to Pune Regional Medical Center: $65 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $115 • Household costs while unable to work: $200 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Mahin
