Fighting non-Hodgkin lymphoma: help Vadym afford treatment in Yekaterinburg
6 rounds of treatment are planned at Yekaterinburg University Hospital; we are asking for help with the costs insurance does not cover.

In March I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. My oncology team at Yekaterinburg University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in June. I was told to expect about 5 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 37, I worked as a bank teller until March, 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 Yekaterinburg University Hospital 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 $3,700 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,700
• Household costs while unable to work: $520
• Transport to Yekaterinburg University Hospital: $210
• Scans and lab work: $270
Thanks for reading all this.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Vadym?
