Rohan's early-stage lung cancer treatment fund
Rohan is facing early-stage lung cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

In July I was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer. My oncology team at Lucknow Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in October. I was told to expect about 4 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 58, I worked as a shop owner 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 Lucknow 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 $1,500 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $200
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,000
• Transport to Lucknow Regional Medical Center: $150
• Scans and lab work: $150
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
