Standing with Dayo: kidney cancer treatment costs
Supporting Dayo through kidney cancer: medication, transport to Wudil University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.
🇳🇬 Nigeria1,514 views
Dayo was diagnosed with kidney cancer in April. The oncology team at Wudil University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Dayo is 51, worked as a farmer until April, 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 Wudil University Hospital 3 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 $450 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $125
• Transport to Wudil University Hospital: $120
• Scans and lab work: $205
If you're reading this, thank you.

Thanks for sharing this, Esther. This could happen to any of us
Thinking of you and your family, Esther. Wishing Dayo a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Bergamo but we're thinking of you!
sending good thoughts, Esther. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest.
