Standing with Kamal: thyroid cancer treatment costs
Supporting Kamal through thyroid cancer: medication, transport to Mecca Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
🇸🇦 Mecca, Makkah, Saudi Arabia1,057 views
Kamal was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in March. The oncology team at Mecca Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in June. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Kamal is 41, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until March, 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 Mecca Regional Medical Center 3 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 $2,950 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $890
• Transport to Mecca Regional Medical Center: $470
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $480
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,110
Thank you so much.
