Help Mahesh through 8 rounds of treatment for stomach cancer

Mahesh is facing stomach cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Mahesh was diagnosed with stomach cancer in August. The oncology team at Ahmedabad Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Mahesh is 38, worked as a bank teller 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 Ahmedabad Cancer Centre 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $700 goes: • Transport to Ahmedabad Cancer Centre: $180 • Scans and lab work: $155 • Household costs while unable to work: $290 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $75 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

      Sure. The biggest one is transport to Ahmedabad Cancer Centre, $180. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one.
