Islamabad
Shazia was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in August. The oncology team at Islamabad Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Shazia is 57, worked as a construction supervisor 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 Islamabad Cancer Centre 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 $600 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $250 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $70 • Transport to Islamabad Cancer Centre: $65 • Scans and lab work: $215 Glad we found this place.
