Help Derya through 4 rounds of treatment for Hodgkin lymphoma

Derya is facing Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Derya was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Çankaya Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Derya is 27, worked as a bank teller until August, 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 Çankaya 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $2,250 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,250 • Scans and lab work: $340 • Transport to Çankaya Cancer Centre: $200 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $230 • Household costs while unable to work: $230 I hope life is good to you. - Yusuf

  • Stay strong, Yusuf. Shared this with my family. After 6 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best!
