Siliguri
Ganesh was diagnosed with cervical cancer in May. The oncology team at Siliguri University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Ganesh is 40, worked as a hairdresser until May, 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 Siliguri University Hospital 5 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 $1,050 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $630 • Household costs while unable to work: $310 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $110 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Deepa

  1. Thank you all. We're at 62% now ($646). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team is now scheduled.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($519 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Wanted to say thank you properly. 39% funded and I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts.
