Standing with Mukasa: stomach cancer treatment costs

In May I was diagnosed with stomach cancer. My oncology team at Nairobi University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in August. I was told to expect about 8 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 56, I worked as a bank teller until May, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Nairobi University Hospital 4 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,150 goes: • Scans and lab work: $250 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $820 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80 I hope life is good to you.
