Fighting kidney cancer: help Rahima afford treatment in Narayanganj
Supporting Rahima through kidney cancer: medication, transport to Narayanganj Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
Anywhere in the world2,020 views
Rahima was diagnosed with kidney cancer in May. The oncology team at Narayanganj Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in July. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Rahima is 33, worked as a hairdresser until May, 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 Narayanganj 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 her shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $550 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $135
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85
• Household costs while unable to work: $230
• Transport to Narayanganj Cancer Centre: $100
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Springfield but we're thinking of you
