Nipa's acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment fund
Supporting Nipa through acute lymphoblastic leukemia: medication, transport to the Dhaka Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.
🇧🇩 Bangladesh1,225 views
In August I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. My oncology team at the Dhaka Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in November. I was told to expect about 10 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 29, I worked as a cleaner at a hospital until August, 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 the Dhaka Oncology Institute 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $500 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $130
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $55
• Household costs while unable to work: $240
• Transport to the Dhaka Oncology Institute: $75
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 26 people at work. God bless.
