Rina was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in September. The oncology team at Savar Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Rina is 39, worked as a taxi driver until September, 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 Savar Regional Medical Center 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 $350 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $45 • Scans and lab work: $140 • Transport to Savar Regional Medical Center: $65 • Household costs while unable to work: $100 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
