Standing with Lamia: cervical cancer treatment costs
Supporting Lamia through cervical cancer: medication, transport to Narayanganj Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
🇧🇩 BangladeshPosted Oct 1, 20261,579 views
Lamia was diagnosed with cervical cancer in August. The oncology team at Narayanganj Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in December. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Lamia is 37, worked as a hairdresser until August, 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 Narayanganj Cancer Centre 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,150 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $680
• Household costs while unable to work: $230
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $90
• Transport to Narayanganj Cancer Centre: $150
Thanks for reading all this.

Sending love, Rina. Hope the doctors have good news.
Thinking of you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Greetings from Sydney.
hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Saket but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Narayanganj
you're not alone. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Greetings from Södertälje
