Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Paul afford treatment in Abuja
4 rounds of treatment are planned at the Abuja Oncology Institute; we are asking for help with the costs insurance does not cover.

Paul was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at the Abuja Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Paul is 29, worked as a bank teller 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 the Abuja Oncology Institute 2 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $1,200 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $220
• Transport to the Abuja Oncology Institute: $105
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $110
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $765
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

praying for you. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Hope things get better soon, Joy. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from London!
Praying for you, Joy. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 31 people at work. Take care.
