Rahim's early-stage lung cancer treatment fund
Rahim is facing early-stage lung cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇧🇩 Bangladesh1,870 views
Rahim was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in August. The oncology team at Rajshahi Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Rahim is 40, worked as a taxi driver until August, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Rajshahi Regional Medical Center 3 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 his shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $600
• Scans and lab work: $80
• Transport to Rajshahi Regional Medical Center: $60
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $40
• Household costs while unable to work: $270
I hope life is good to you.

Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
