Help Ashok through 10 rounds of treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Supporting Ashok through acute lymphoblastic leukemia: medication, transport to Hamilton Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
Anywhere in the world4,747 views
Ashok was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in September. The oncology team at Hamilton Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in December. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Ashok is 35, worked as a construction supervisor 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 Hamilton 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $5,800 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,200
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $630
• Household costs while unable to work: $970
Thank you for reading my story.

So sorry you're going through this. Wishing Ashok a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ashok
Chemotherapy and medication not covered is $4,200 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Ask me anything else.
Good luck, Neelam. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Wishing you peace, Neelam. Gave what I could, wish it was more
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Hamilton.
Thank you. If you're in Hamilton I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Thinking of you and your family. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Hamilton.
hope the doctors have good news. Sent it to 4 people at work. Take care.
Good luck, Neelam. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
Hope it all works out, Neelam. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update.
