Fighting stage 3 ovarian cancer: help Priya afford treatment in Bogra
Supporting Priya through stage 3 ovarian cancer: medication, transport to Bogra Regional Medical Center, and living costs while She can't work.
🇧🇩 Bogra, Rajshahi, Bangladesh547 views
In May I was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. My oncology team at Bogra Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in August. I was told to expect about 6 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 41, I worked as a primary school teacher until May, 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 Bogra Regional Medical Center 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 $1,550 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,000
• Scans and lab work: $85
• Transport to Bogra Regional Medical Center: $120
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85
• Household costs while unable to work: $260
Thank you for reading my story.

Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. Love from Thane
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Bogra.
Thinking of you and your family, Priya. Wishing Priya a smooth procedure and a full recovery. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Bogra.
Any update on how things are going in Bogra?
Hang in there. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Bogra
Hang in there, Priya. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care
Good luck, Priya. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 28 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Padua.
Best of luck, Priya. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out
Stay strong, Priya. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best
Sending good thoughts, Priya. Hope the doctors have good news.
