Help Yamuna through 12 rounds of treatment for prostate cancer

12 rounds of treatment are planned at Thane Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Yamuna was diagnosed with prostate cancer in July. The oncology team at Thane Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Yamuna is 52, worked as a tailor 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 Thane 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,450 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,150 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $120 • Scans and lab work: $180 With deep gratitude, Hari

    Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Thane!

    • Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Thane.

      • So sorry you're going through this, Hari. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to London so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Thane

          thinking of you and your family, Hari. It takes guts to ask. Well done

          • So sorry you're going through this. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best
