Help Orhan through 10 rounds of treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Orhan is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Orhan was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in July. The oncology team at Çankaya Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Orhan is 27, worked as a bank teller until July, 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 Çankaya 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 $1,750 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $180 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,300 • Household costs while unable to work: $270 Thank you for reading my story.

      Praying for you. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Hồ Chí Minh City donated after I showed her your page. Take care.

      • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Orhan.

        • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team is $180 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Let me know if you want more detail.

      • Hang in there, Songül. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Blessings.

        • Take care, Songül. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 7 people at work. Take care.

          • You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Madrid.

            • Thinking of you and your family, Songül. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

                Sending strength, Songül. Wishing Orhan a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
