Standing with Pranav: non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs
Supporting Pranav through non-Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Mumbai Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
Anywhere in the world3,577 views
Pranav was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in October. The oncology team at Mumbai Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in December. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Pranav is 54, worked as a bus conductor until October, 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 Mumbai 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 $1,750 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,100
• Scans and lab work: $160
• Transport to Mumbai Regional Medical Center: $125
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $55
• Household costs while unable to work: $310
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Pranav!
Sure. The biggest one is chemotherapy and medication not covered, $1,100. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. It helps to be asked.
you're not alone, Rani. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
