Fighting kidney cancer: help Boonmee afford treatment in Bang Khen
4 rounds of treatment are planned at Bang Khen Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Boonmee was diagnosed with kidney cancer in June. The oncology team at Bang Khen Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Boonmee is 37, worked as a bakery worker until June, 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 Bang Khen Cancer Centre 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $1,500 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $185
• Scans and lab work: $380
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $935
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
