Help Pallavi through 8 rounds of treatment for thyroid cancer
Pallavi is facing thyroid cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇮🇳 India1,518 views
Pallavi was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in June. The oncology team at Jabalpur University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Pallavi is 27, worked as a hairdresser until June, 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 Jabalpur University Hospital 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 $1,750 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,250
• Transport to Jabalpur University Hospital: $155
• Household costs while unable to work: $230
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $115
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Jabalpur.
Thank you. If you're in Jabalpur I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.
sending good thoughts. Shared this with my family!
