Standing with Diana: stage 2 breast cancer treatment costs

Diana is facing stage 2 breast cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Takoradi
Diana was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in July. The oncology team at Takoradi Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Diana is 48, worked as a farmer until July, 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 Takoradi Cancer Centre 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,400 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $650 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80 • Scans and lab work: $300 • Household costs while unable to work: $370 If you're reading this, thank you.

    Wishing you peace, George. I hope things turn around soon. After 23 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
