Krishnan was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in April. The oncology team at Jaipur Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Krishnan is 37, worked as a bank teller 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 Jaipur Regional Medical Center 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,450 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $910 • Scans and lab work: $195 • Transport to Jaipur Regional Medical Center: $60 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $95 • Household costs while unable to work: $190 If you're reading this, thank you.

        Thank you. If you're in Jaipur I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.

    • thinking of you and your family, Sudha. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Thinking of Jaipur.

      • Keep going, Sudha. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Limerick.

        • sending good thoughts, Sudha. Looking forward to the next update. All the best.

          • I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 22 people at work. Thinking of Jaipur.

            • Stay strong, Sudha. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Mohammedia.

              • So sorry you're going through this. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.

                • take care. Hope the doctors have good news. Take care!
