Gayathri's thyroid cancer treatment fund

Gayathri was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at Bengaluru Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Gayathri is 46, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until August, 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 Bengaluru Cancer Centre 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 $950 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $530 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80 • Scans and lab work: $230 • Transport to Bengaluru Cancer Centre: $110 Thank you for reading my story.

        Is there anything that isn't money that would help Gayathri?

        • Janani L. RajanOwnerAnswer

          Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about chemotherapy and medication not covered, advice is welcome too. Thanks, that means a lot.

        Sending good thoughts, Janani. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Southampton.

        • Hang in there, Janani. Hope the doctors have good news. Blessings.

          • This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Regensburg this morning. Greetings from Regensburg

            • Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Bengaluru.

              • Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Bogotá so I could bring a meal. Blessings.

                • a colleague of mine might know someone for this in Karnataka. I'll ask around and let you know.
