Fighting thyroid cancer: help Tanvi afford treatment in Pune

Tanvi was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in September. The oncology team at Pune Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in December. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Tanvi is 33, worked as a primary school teacher until September, 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 Pune 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,200 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $890 • Scans and lab work: $250 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $60 Every share and every dollar helps.
