Help Odhiambo through 10 rounds of treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma
Odhiambo is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇹🇿 Dar es Salaam, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania760 views
Odhiambo was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Dar es Salaam University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Odhiambo is 31, worked as a shop owner 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 Dar es Salaam University Hospital 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,300 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $590
• Scans and lab work: $220
• Transport to Dar es Salaam University Hospital: $85
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $100
• Household costs while unable to work: $305
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
