Help Yogesh through 4 rounds of treatment for cervical cancer

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

Yogesh was diagnosed with cervical cancer in April. The oncology team at Mumbai Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Yogesh is 24, worked as a bakery worker until April, 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 Mumbai Cancer Centre 5 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $450 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $105 • Transport to Mumbai Cancer Centre: $80 • Household costs while unable to work: $180 • Scans and lab work: $85 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

    Wishing Yogesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

      I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Ciudad de México so I could bring a meal. Take care

        Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Adama
