Fighting stomach cancer: help Mahesh afford treatment in Bengaluru
Supporting Mahesh through stomach cancer: medication, transport to Bengaluru Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
🇮🇳 Bengaluru, Karnataka, India1,085 views
Mahesh was diagnosed with stomach cancer in April. The oncology team at Bengaluru Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in June. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Mahesh is 35, worked as a hairdresser until April, 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 Bengaluru Regional Medical Center 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 $500 goes:
• Transport to Bengaluru Regional Medical Center: $70
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $55
• Household costs while unable to work: $375
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Keep going, Divya. Looking forward to the next update. All the best.
Hang in there, Divya. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
