Help Kouki through 6 rounds of treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma

6 rounds of treatment are planned at Tokyo Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Tokyo
Kouki was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Tokyo Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Kouki is 53, worked as a farmer 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 Tokyo Cancer Centre 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 his shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $8,150 goes: • Transport to Tokyo Cancer Centre: $630 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $350 • Scans and lab work: $1,400 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,770 With deep gratitude, Noboru
