Fighting thyroid cancer: help Priscilla afford treatment in Tema

Supporting Priscilla through thyroid cancer: medication, transport to Tema Regional Medical Center, and living costs while She cannot work.

Tema
Priscilla was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in May. The oncology team at Tema Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in July. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Priscilla is 38, worked as a farmer until May, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Tema Regional Medical Center 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,300 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $710 • Scans and lab work: $175 • Transport to Tema Regional Medical Center: $75 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $90 • Household costs while unable to work: $250 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
