Halima's cervical cancer treatment fund

4 rounds of treatment are planned at the Warri Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Warri
Halima was diagnosed with cervical cancer in August. The oncology team at the Warri Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Halima is 36, worked as a farmer 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 the Warri Oncology Institute 5 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 $400 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $65 • Scans and lab work: $190 • Household costs while unable to work: $145 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Michael
