Fighting Hodgkin lymphoma: help Nazia afford treatment in Lahore

12 rounds of treatment are planned at the Lahore Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Lahore
Nazia was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at the Lahore Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Nazia is 47, worked as a bakery worker until August, 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 Lahore Oncology Institute 2 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 $400 goes: • Scans and lab work: $150 • Household costs while unable to work: $180 • Transport to the Lahore Oncology Institute: $70 I hope life is good to you. - Iqra

Updates from Iqra

  1. Quick update: $330 raised so far (83%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($195 in total) the plan for transport to the Lahore Oncology Institute is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Small update. $40 so far, the plan for household costs while unable to work is now scheduled.
