Standing with Haritha: non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs

Haritha is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Nashik
Haritha was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Nashik Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Haritha is 58, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Nashik Cancer Centre 4 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 $2,000 goes: โ€ข Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,350 โ€ข Scans and lab work: $260 โ€ข Transport to Nashik Cancer Centre: $155 โ€ข Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $70 โ€ข Household costs while unable to work: $165 Glad we found this place.

      I pay the treatment center and post the receipt here so you can see where it went.

  • Sending good thoughts, Ashwin. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out

    • Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
