Nancy's stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment fund

6 rounds of treatment are planned at Entebbe Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Entebbe
Nancy was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in August. The oncology team at Entebbe Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 6 weeks. Nancy is 34, worked as a farmer until August, 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 Entebbe Cancer Centre 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 $600 goes: • Transport to Entebbe Cancer Centre: $95 • Household costs while unable to work: $280 • Scans and lab work: $225 Thank you so much. - Evans

    Keep going. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
