Standing with Imran: a rare sarcoma treatment costs

6 rounds of treatment are planned at Faisalabad University Hospital; we are asking for help with the costs insurance does not cover.

Imran was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in July. The oncology team at Faisalabad University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks. Imran is 34, worked as a tailor until July, 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 Faisalabad University Hospital 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,500 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,000 • Scans and lab work: $115 • Transport to Faisalabad University Hospital: $90 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85 • Household costs while unable to work: $210 Thanks for reading all this. - Hussain

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Imran!

      Sure. The biggest one is chemotherapy and medication not covered, $1,000. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
