In July I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. My oncology team at Saket Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in October. I was told to expect about 3 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 29, I worked as a bakery worker until July, 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 Saket Regional Medical Center 3 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 $1,700 goes: โ€ข Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,200 โ€ข Household costs while unable to work: $370 โ€ข Scans and lab work: $130 I hope life is good to you. - Pavithra

Updates from Pavithra

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($951 in total) I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Update from Saket: we've started the first stage. We're at 23% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Pavithra.
