Fighting Hodgkin lymphoma: help Varun afford treatment in Durgapur
6 rounds of treatment are planned at Durgapur University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Varun was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in February. The oncology team at Durgapur University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks.
Varun is 56, worked as a bus conductor until February, 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 Durgapur University Hospital 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 his 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: $620
• Scans and lab work: $190
• Transport to Durgapur University Hospital: $110
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $120
• Household costs while unable to work: $310
I hope life is good to you.
