Fighting early-stage lung cancer: help Rabia afford treatment in Faisalabad
Rabia is facing early-stage lung cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇵🇰 Pakistan358 views
Rabia was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in November. The oncology team at Faisalabad University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in February. She will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Rabia is 32, worked as a farmer until November, 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 Faisalabad 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 her shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $450 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $155
• Household costs while unable to work: $220
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $75
Thanks for being kind about this.
