Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Bolaji afford treatment in Abuja
Supporting Bolaji through non-Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Abuja University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.
🇳🇬 900594, Abuja, Abuja FCT, Nigeria1,295 views
In April I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. My oncology team at Abuja University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in July. I was told to expect about 6 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 51, I worked as a cleaner at a hospital until April, and I have been the main earner for my household.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Abuja University Hospital 2 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly.
My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $1,600 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80
• Transport to Abuja University Hospital: $120
• Scans and lab work: $270
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,130
If you're reading this, thank you.

wishing you the best, Bolaji. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Kraków donated after I showed her your page.
I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Abuja
you're not alone, Bolaji. Hope this works out for you. After 27 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Sending good thoughts. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Abuja.
wishing you peace, Bolaji. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Angeles but we're thinking of you.
Stay strong, Bolaji. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
praying for you, Bolaji. Get well soon. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
sending good thoughts, Bolaji. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in São Paulo but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Abuja.
