Mukesh's Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund
Mukesh is facing Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇺🇸 Louisville, Kentucky, United States1,837 views
Mukesh was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in July. The oncology team at the Louisville Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Mukesh is 52, worked as a tailor until July, 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 the Louisville Oncology Institute 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 $7,350 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $570
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,150
• Scans and lab work: $1,600
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,030
Thanks for being kind about this.

Best of luck. Wishing Mukesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery. God bless
Wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care
Praying for you, Madhu. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Newcastle
stay strong. Wishing Mukesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Hope it all works out, Madhu. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Louisville.
Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Louisville
Thinking of you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
