Paresh was diagnosed with kidney cancer in May. The oncology team at Mumbai University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Paresh is 47, worked as a tailor until May, 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 Mumbai 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $950 goes: โ€ข Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85 โ€ข Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $710 โ€ข Scans and lab work: $155 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

        • Keep going. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Osaka this morning. God bless

          • Stay strong. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
