Help Paul through 6 rounds of treatment for stomach cancer

6 rounds of treatment are planned at Machakos Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Paul was diagnosed with stomach cancer in May. The oncology team at Machakos Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks. Paul is 27, worked as a farmer 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 Machakos Cancer Centre 3 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 $1,500 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $650 • Scans and lab work: $250 • Transport to Machakos Cancer Centre: $145 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80 • Household costs while unable to work: $375 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
