Standing with Rohan: colon cancer treatment costs
Supporting Rohan through colon cancer: medication, transport to the Ludhiana Oncology Institute, and living costs while He can't work.
🇮🇳 India1,102 views
Rohan was diagnosed with colon cancer in July. The oncology team at the Ludhiana Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Rohan is 33, worked as a farmer until July, 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 the Ludhiana Oncology Institute 2 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $350 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $115
• Scans and lab work: $115
• Transport to the Ludhiana Oncology Institute: $120

Praying for you, Purvi. Hope you get there. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
Thinking of you. Hope you get there. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Thane this morning.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care.
