Standing with Grace: stomach cancer treatment costs

Supporting Grace through stomach cancer: medication, transport to Accra Regional Medical Center, and living costs while She can't work.

Accra
Grace was diagnosed with stomach cancer in August. The oncology team at Accra Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Grace is 34, worked as a construction supervisor until August, 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 Accra Regional Medical Center 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,800 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $990 • Scans and lab work: $220 • Transport to Accra Regional Medical Center: $165 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $110 • Household costs while unable to work: $315 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

    Thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Dar es Salaam but we're thinking of you. God bless.
