Fighting stage 3 ovarian cancer: help Nasrin afford treatment in Mumbai
Nasrin is facing stage 3 ovarian cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

In April I was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. My oncology team at Mumbai Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in July. I was told to expect about 5 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 36, I worked as a hairdresser until April, 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 Mumbai Regional Medical Center 4 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,350 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $55
• Scans and lab work: $135
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,160
Glad we found this place.
