Hassan's multiple myeloma treatment fund

6 rounds of treatment are planned at Rawalpindi Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Rawalpindi
In August I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. My oncology team at Rawalpindi Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in December. I was told to expect about 6 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 56, I worked as a tailor until August, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Rawalpindi Regional Medical Center 2 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,250 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $810 • Scans and lab work: $95 • Transport to Rawalpindi Regional Medical Center: $105 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $75 • Household costs while unable to work: $165 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Updates from Hassan

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($423 in total) I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
