Fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia: help Jiraporn afford treatment in Khon Kaen
Jiraporn is facing acute lymphoblastic leukemia and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇹🇭 Khon Kaen, Thailand1,313 views
In April I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. My oncology team at Khon Kaen Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in July. I was told to expect about 5 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 25, I worked as a primary school teacher until April, 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 Khon Kaen 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 $700 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $185
• Transport to Khon Kaen Cancer Centre: $290
• Scans and lab work: $225
Thank you for reading my story.
