Standing with Jahid: non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs

6 rounds of treatment are planned at Jessore Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Jahid was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in May. The oncology team at Jessore Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks. Jahid is 56, worked as a tailor until May, 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 Jessore Regional Medical Center 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $600 goes: • Transport to Jessore Regional Medical Center: $80 • Household costs while unable to work: $165 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $355 Thanks for being kind about this.

Updates from Shuvo

  1. Thank you all. We're at 14% now ($82). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts.
