Help Amir through 8 rounds of treatment for kidney cancer
Amir is facing kidney cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇲🇦 Morocco1,345 views
Amir was diagnosed with kidney cancer in August. The oncology team at the Rabat Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Amir is 42, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Rabat Oncology Institute 4 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $900 goes:
• Transport to the Rabat Oncology Institute: $170
• Scans and lab work: $230
• Household costs while unable to work: $390
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $110
Thank you for reading my story.

Wanted to say thank you properly. 65% funded and I made the first payment toward scans and lab work.
Small update. $185 so far, I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. - Lubna
Update from Rabat: we've started the first stage. We're at 9% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
