Help Vindya through 4 rounds of treatment for colon cancer

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

Vindya was diagnosed with colon cancer in August. The oncology team at Colombo Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Vindya is 54, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until August, 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 Colombo Regional Medical Center 2 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 $900 goes: • Household costs while unable to work: $165 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $520 • Scans and lab work: $215 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
