Hasan's acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment fund

Hasan is facing acute lymphoblastic leukemia and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Hasan was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in August. The oncology team at the Breda Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks. Hasan is 38, worked as a tailor 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 Breda 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $7,500 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $3,150 • Scans and lab work: $810 • Transport to the Breda Oncology Institute: $770 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $780 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,990 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Updates from Recep

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($3,987 in total) I made the first payment toward chemotherapy and medication not covered. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Update from Breda: I made the first payment toward household costs while unable to work. We're at 28% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  • Thinking of you, Recep. Shared it with a few friends. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.

    • Rooting for you, Recep. Wishing Hasan a smooth procedure and a full recovery. God bless.

      • Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Kasarani.

        • Hang in there, Recep. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
