Help Leila through 10 rounds of treatment for prostate cancer
Supporting Leila through prostate cancer: medication, transport to the Jeddah Oncology Institute, and living costs while She cannot work.
🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia3,103 views
Leila was diagnosed with prostate cancer in July. The oncology team at the Jeddah Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Leila is 50, worked as a bus conductor until July, 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 the Jeddah Oncology Institute 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $6,400 goes:
• Transport to the Jeddah Oncology Institute: $490
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,100
• Household costs while unable to work: $780
• Scans and lab work: $1,030
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Leila?
You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Reading!
Wishing you peace, Dalia. Hope you get there. After 26 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Abbottabad.
Stay strong, Dalia. Hope the doctors have good news
Any update on how things are going in Jeddah?
hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Seoul so I could bring a meal. All the best
Hope it all works out, Dalia. Hope you get there.
