Help Beatrice through 10 rounds of treatment for stage 2 breast cancer

Beatrice is facing stage 2 breast cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Beatrice was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in January. The oncology team at the Mbarara Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in March. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Beatrice is 49, worked as a farmer until January, 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 the Mbarara Oncology Institute 3 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 $1,200 goes: • Transport to the Mbarara Oncology Institute: $140 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $730 • Household costs while unable to work: $330 I hope life is good to you.
