Nazrul was diagnosed with colon cancer in August. The oncology team at Thane University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Nazrul is 28, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Thane 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $2,000 goes: • Transport to Thane University Hospital: $130 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,400 • Scans and lab work: $110 • Household costs while unable to work: $360 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

      • It's all in the list in the story. transport to Thane University Hospital is the big one at $130, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Let me know if you want more detail.
