Standing with Radha: stomach cancer treatment costs
Radha is facing stomach cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇮🇳 Pune, Maharashtra, India2,143 views
Radha was diagnosed with stomach cancer in December. The oncology team at Pune Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in March. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Radha is 25, worked as a farmer until December, 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 Pune Regional Medical Center 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $400 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $280
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $65
• Transport to Pune Regional Medical Center: $55
Every share and every dollar helps.

Good luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Hồ Chí Minh City but we're thinking of you.
So sorry you're going through this, Mohit. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I hope March is when things finally get easier. Love from London
Rooting for you. I hope things turn around soon. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Mohit. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Zapopan.
Get well soon. Love from Reading.
Sending love, Mohit. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care!
