Help Rasha through 12 rounds of treatment for stage 3 ovarian cancer

Rasha is facing stage 3 ovarian cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

6th of October City
Rasha was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in October. The oncology team at 6th of October City Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in January. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Rasha is 46, worked as a tailor until October, 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 6th of October City Cancer Centre 4 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $850 goes: โ€ข Transport to 6th of October City Cancer Centre: $55 โ€ข Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $730 โ€ข Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $65 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
