Help Taras through 12 rounds of treatment for early-stage lung cancer
Taras is facing early-stage lung cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇷🇺 Russia1,659 views
Taras was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in January. The oncology team at the Kazan Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Taras is 29, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until January, 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 the Kazan Oncology Institute 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $510
• Transport to the Kazan Oncology Institute: $230
• Scans and lab work: $260
With deep gratitude,
Maksym
