Help Varsha through 10 rounds of treatment for colon cancer

Varsha is facing colon cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Varsha was diagnosed with colon cancer in July. The oncology team at Rajkot Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Varsha is 27, worked as a bus conductor until July, 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 Rajkot Regional Medical Center 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,050 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $520 • Household costs while unable to work: $350 • Transport to Rajkot Regional Medical Center: $100 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80 I hope life is good to you. - Parvathi

Updates from Parvathi

  1. Thank you all. We're at 8% now ($86). I'm honestly stunned. we've started the first stage.

  2. Update from Rajkot: I made the first payment toward household costs while unable to work. We're at 5% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
