Fighting colon cancer: help Komal afford treatment in Dwarka

Komal is facing colon cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Dwarka
Komal was diagnosed with colon cancer in June. The oncology team at the Dwarka Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Komal is 39, worked as a tailor until June, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to the Dwarka Oncology Institute 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,350 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $880 • Scans and lab work: $130 • Transport to the Dwarka Oncology Institute: $105 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $130 • Household costs while unable to work: $105 With deep gratitude, Shilpa
