Nashik
Vijay was diagnosed with prostate cancer in September. The oncology team at Nashik Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Vijay is 58, worked as a primary school teacher until September, 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 Nashik 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $700 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $130 • Scans and lab work: $155 • Household costs while unable to work: $415 With deep gratitude, Mahesh

  • Sending strength, Mahesh. Wishing Vijay a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My husband and I read this together.

    • Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 21 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

        Thinking of you, Mahesh. Hope the doctors have good news. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Peshawar.
