Shapla's multiple myeloma treatment fund

8 rounds of treatment are planned at the Narayanganj Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Narayanganj
Shapla was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in May. The oncology team at the Narayanganj Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Shapla is 42, worked as a bakery worker 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 the Narayanganj 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 her shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,300 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $780 • Scans and lab work: $105 • Transport to the Narayanganj Oncology Institute: $55 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $95 • Household costs while unable to work: $265 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Bappy
