Standing with Kiran: stomach cancer treatment costs

Supporting Kiran through stomach cancer: medication, transport to Patna University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.

Kiran was diagnosed with stomach cancer in June. The oncology team at Patna University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 6 weeks. Kiran is 33, worked as a tailor until June, 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 Patna 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $550 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $95 • Transport to Patna University Hospital: $85 • Household costs while unable to work: $370 If you're reading this, thank you.
