Fighting stomach cancer: help Anisur afford treatment in Dhaka

Anisur is facing stomach cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Dhaka
Anisur was diagnosed with stomach cancer in May. The oncology team at Dhaka Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Anisur is 24, worked as a primary school teacher until May, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Dhaka Cancer Centre 2 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,450 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $880 • Scans and lab work: $200 • Transport to Dhaka Cancer Centre: $120 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $105 • Household costs while unable to work: $145 With deep gratitude, Ishrat
