Fighting stage 3 ovarian cancer: help Saanvi afford treatment in Coimbatore

Saanvi 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 August I was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. My oncology team at Coimbatore Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in December. I was told to expect about 8 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 33, I worked as a hairdresser until August, 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 Coimbatore 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 $550 goes: • Scans and lab work: $200 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $60 • Transport to Coimbatore Regional Medical Center: $90 • Household costs while unable to work: $200 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Saanvi
