Standing with Amol: thyroid cancer treatment costs

12 rounds of treatment are planned at Udaipur University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Amol was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at Udaipur University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Amol is 43, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until August, 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 Udaipur University Hospital 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $800 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $135 • Scans and lab work: $250 • Household costs while unable to work: $290 • Transport to Udaipur University Hospital: $125 Thanks for being kind about this.
