Rohit's colon cancer treatment fund
Rohit is facing colon cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇮🇳 Nagpur, Maharashtra, India1,128 views
Rohit was diagnosed with colon cancer in November. The oncology team at the Nagpur Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in March. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Rohit is 26, worked as a primary school teacher until November, 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 the Nagpur Oncology Institute 4 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 $500 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $90
• Transport to the Nagpur Oncology Institute: $165
• Scans and lab work: $245

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rohit.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team comes first ($90) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Fair thing to want to know.
Take care. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Caruaru
Sending love. Wishing Rohit a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Sent it to 27 people at work.
sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Faisalabad.
