Fighting multiple myeloma: help Rima afford treatment in Sylhet
10 rounds of treatment are planned at Sylhet Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Rima was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in May. The oncology team at Sylhet Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Rima is 33, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Sylhet Cancer Centre 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 $950 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $150
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $740
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $60
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
