Rubina's Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund
Rubina is facing Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Rubina was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in May. The oncology team at Faisalabad Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Rubina is 37, worked as a shop owner until May, 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 Faisalabad 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 her shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $1,450 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $200
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,050
• Scans and lab work: $110
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $90
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rubina.
It's all in the list in the story. household costs while unable to work is the big one at $200, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks for looking so closely.
Best of luck, Arslan. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
