Help Abubakar through 12 rounds of treatment for thyroid cancer

12 rounds of treatment are planned at Lagos Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Abubakar was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in September. The oncology team at Lagos Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in December. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Abubakar is 35, worked as a nurse until September, 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 Lagos Cancer Centre 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $450 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $45 • Scans and lab work: $165 • Household costs while unable to work: $240 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Zubby

      Sending love, Zubby. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
