Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Lata afford treatment in Pune

10 rounds of treatment are planned at the Pune Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

In September I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. My oncology team at the Pune Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in December. I was told to expect about 10 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 42, I worked as a primary school teacher until September, 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 the Pune Oncology Institute 5 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 $2,050 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $370 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $65 • Transport to the Pune Oncology Institute: $160 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,455 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
