Naliaka's non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund
Supporting Naliaka through non-Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Dar es Salaam Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
🇹🇿 Dar es Salaam, Tanzania878 views
In September I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. My oncology team at Dar es Salaam Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in October. I was told to expect about 8 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 43, I worked as a nurse until September, and I have been the main earner for my household.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Dar es Salaam Cancer Centre 2 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly.
My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,550 goes:
• Transport to Dar es Salaam Cancer Centre: $165
• Scans and lab work: $95
• Household costs while unable to work: $130
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,160
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

You're not alone. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Dar es Salaam
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Naliaka.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. transport to Dar es Salaam Cancer Centre is the biggest at $165. Thanks, that means a lot.
Hang in there, Naliaka. This could happen to any of us. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Love from Timișoara.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Dar es Salaam.
