Newport
Mohammed was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in August. The oncology team at Newport Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Mohammed is 58, worked as a shop owner until August, 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 Newport 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $7,650 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,250 • Scans and lab work: $790 • Transport to Newport Cancer Centre: $890 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $560 • Household costs while unable to work: $1,160 If you're reading this, thank you. - Basma
