Help Abena through 12 rounds of treatment for Hodgkin lymphoma
Supporting Abena through Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Takoradi Regional Medical Center, and living costs while She can't work.
🇬🇭 Ghana2,879 views
Abena was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in March. The oncology team at Takoradi Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in July. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Abena is 25, worked as a tailor until March, 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 Takoradi Regional Medical Center 2 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 $1,550 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $165
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,100
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $145
• Transport to Takoradi Regional Medical Center: $140
Every share and every dollar helps.

Sending love, Kojo. Get well soon. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
So sorry you're going through this, Kojo. I hope things turn around soon. All the best.

Stay strong, Kojo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 19 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Zaporizhzhia
wishing Abena a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My neighbor in Allentown donated after I showed her your page. Love from Allentown.
