10 rounds of treatment are planned at Lalitpur University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Mahesh was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in August. The oncology team at Lalitpur University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in December. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Mahesh is 27, worked as a farmer until August, 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 Lalitpur 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 $650 goes: โ€ข Scans and lab work: $200 โ€ข Household costs while unable to work: $240 โ€ข Transport to Lalitpur University Hospital: $130 โ€ข Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80 With deep gratitude, Sapana

Updates from Sapana

  1. Quick update: $380 raised so far (58%). I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 64% funded and the plan for nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team is now scheduled.

  • Praying for you, Sapana. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Thrissur
