Rakesh's Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund
Supporting Rakesh through Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Dwarka Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
🇮🇳 Dwarka, Delhi, India1,288 views
Rakesh was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in July. The oncology team at Dwarka Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Rakesh is 56, worked as a bus conductor until July, 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 Dwarka Regional Medical Center 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $550 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $330
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $130
• Scans and lab work: $90
Thanks for reading all this.

Updates from Ishita
Small update. $318 so far, I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts.
23% there. the plan for nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team is now scheduled. Thank you.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($75 in total) I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Bonny
thinking of you. Wishing Rakesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Sending strength. Get well soon. Greetings from Seoul.
Good luck, Ishita. Shared it with a few friends. After 28 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
