Help Wanida through 10 rounds of treatment for multiple myeloma
Wanida is facing multiple myeloma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇹🇭 Bang Khen, Bangkok, Thailand3,426 views
Wanida was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in September. The oncology team at Bang Khen University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in December. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Wanida is 35, worked as a bank teller until September, 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 Bang Khen University Hospital 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 $2,450 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,500
• Scans and lab work: $330
• Transport to Bang Khen University Hospital: $260
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85
• Household costs while unable to work: $275
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Best of luck, Somchai. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Brampton.
Hope things get better soon, Somchai. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Thinking of you. Hope the doctors have good news. Thinking of Bang Khen
Sending good thoughts, Somchai. It takes guts to ask. Well done
