Standing with Hadi: Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs

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

Heliopolis

Hadi was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in February. The oncology team at the Heliopolis Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Hadi is 35, worked as a nurse until February, 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 the Heliopolis Oncology Institute 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 $1,450 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $90 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,200 • Transport to the Heliopolis Oncology Institute: $160 With deep gratitude, Mahmoud

Updates from Mahmoud

Update from Heliopolis: I made the first payment toward nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team. We're at 8% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Small update. $74 so far, we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 4% funded and I made the first payment toward transport to the Heliopolis Oncology Institute.
