Help Kamran through 12 rounds of treatment for a rare sarcoma

Kamran is facing a rare sarcoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Kamran was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in August. The oncology team at Rawalpindi Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Kamran is 30, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Rawalpindi 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 $1,200 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $680 • Scans and lab work: $185 • Transport to Rawalpindi Cancer Centre: $50 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $55 • Household costs while unable to work: $230 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Sumbal

Updates from Sumbal

  1. Quick update: $122 raised so far (10%). the plan for chemotherapy and medication not covered is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($202 in total) I made the first payment toward nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
