Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Cansu afford treatment in Kadıköy
Cansu is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇹🇷 Istanbul, Türkiye429 views
Cansu was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Kadıköy Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Cansu is 38, worked as a taxi driver until August, 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 Kadıköy Regional Medical Center 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $750 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $130
• Transport to Kadıköy Regional Medical Center: $185
• Scans and lab work: $435
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hang in there. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Nuremberg.
Hang in there, Merve. Hope the doctors have good news. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Hope things get better soon, Merve. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Blessings!
