Fighting stomach cancer: help Deepak afford treatment in Mangaluru

Deepak was diagnosed with stomach cancer in June. The oncology team at the Mangaluru Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Deepak is 25, worked as a bank teller until June, 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 the Mangaluru Oncology Institute 3 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 $450 goes: • Scans and lab work: $250 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $135 • Transport to the Mangaluru Oncology Institute: $65 Every share and every dollar helps.
