Narayanganj
Jahid was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in August. The oncology team at Narayanganj Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Jahid is 33, worked as a cleaner at a hospital 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 Narayanganj Cancer Centre 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 $1,250 goes: • Scans and lab work: $170 • Household costs while unable to work: $105 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $975 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Maliha

Updates from Maliha

  1. Update from Narayanganj: the plan for household costs while unable to work is now scheduled. We're at 50% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

      Is there anything that isn't money that would help Jahid?

        Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about scans and lab work, advice is welcome too.

    • Larysa Elena Koval

      Stay strong. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.

            Wishing Jahid a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Kingston
