Nour's cervical cancer treatment fund

Nour is facing cervical cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Medina
Nour was diagnosed with cervical cancer in April. The oncology team at Medina Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in July. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Nour is 54, worked as a shop owner until April, 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 Medina 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $7,200 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $4,650 • Scans and lab work: $1,000 • Transport to Medina Cancer Centre: $590 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $185 • Household costs while unable to work: $775 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Khadija

    So sorry you're going through this, Khadija. This could happen to any of us. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Iztapalapa.

          • Hope it all works out, Khadija. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Toulon

                                    Thanks for sharing this. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Wish I lived closer to Taguig so I could bring a meal. All the best!
