Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Chukwuemeka afford treatment in Warri

Chukwuemeka is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Warri
Chukwuemeka was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Warri University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Chukwuemeka is 30, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until August, 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 Warri University Hospital 3 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,150 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $570 • Scans and lab work: $230 • Transport to Warri University Hospital: $115 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $50 • Household costs while unable to work: $185 If you're reading this, thank you. - Halima
