Leyla's colon cancer treatment fund
6 rounds of treatment are planned at the Bornova Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇹🇷 Türkiye549 views
Leyla was diagnosed with colon cancer in March. The oncology team at the Bornova Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in June. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Leyla is 32, worked as a farmer until March, 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 the Bornova Oncology Institute 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $800 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $230
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $195
• Scans and lab work: $375
Glad we found this place.
