Fighting stomach cancer: help Mohammad afford treatment in Savar

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

Savar
Mohammad was diagnosed with stomach cancer in August. The oncology team at the Savar Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Mohammad is 57, worked as a shop owner until August, 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 Savar Oncology Institute 4 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,050 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $270 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $700 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80 Thank you for reading my story.
