Standing with Hathai: Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Phuket Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Hathai was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in January. The oncology team at Phuket Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in May. She will be away from work for about 6 weeks.
Hathai is 42, worked as a primary school teacher until January, 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 Phuket Cancer Centre 2 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $2,500 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $440
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,650
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $120
• Transport to Phuket Cancer Centre: $290

Sending strength, Ekkachai. Get well soon. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Nashik.
Keep going, Ekkachai. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless
Sending love, Ekkachai. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
take care. Hope you get there. My husband and I read this together.
Wishing you peace. Wishing Hathai a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Greetings from Houston.
