Help Yamuna through 6 rounds of treatment for multiple myeloma
Yamuna is facing multiple myeloma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇮🇳 IndiaPosted Aug 1, 20262,207 views
Yamuna was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in June. The oncology team at New Delhi Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Yamuna is 31, worked as a bakery worker until June, 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 New Delhi Cancer Centre 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 $1,500 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $290
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,050
• Scans and lab work: $160
Thanks for being kind about this.
