Standing with Reem: multiple myeloma treatment costs
6 rounds of treatment are planned at Jeddah Regional Medical Center; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Reem was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in August. The oncology team at Jeddah Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Reem is 55, worked as a primary school teacher 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 Jeddah Regional Medical Center 5 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 $3,900 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,700
• Scans and lab work: $620
• Transport to Jeddah Regional Medical Center: $580
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

thanks for sharing this, Ibrahim. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Peoria donated after I showed her your page. Love from Peoria
Good luck. I hope things turn around soon. After 26 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
Rooting for you, Ibrahim. Wishing Reem a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Please keep us posted. Take care.
