Rabia's a rare sarcoma treatment fund
12 rounds of treatment are planned at Üsküdar Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Rabia was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in May. The oncology team at Üsküdar Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Rabia is 33, worked as a farmer until May, 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 Üsküdar Cancer Centre 5 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 $2,000 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $370
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,350
• Household costs while unable to work: $280
If you're reading this, thank you.

Best of luck, Recep. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Keep going. Hope you get there. Thinking of Üsküdar!
Rooting for you, Recep. Hope this works out for you. Blessings.
stay strong, Recep. Hope the doctors have good news.
