Standing with Rutuja: Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs
Rutuja is facing Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

In March I was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma. My oncology team at Agra Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in July. I was told to expect about 7 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 33, I worked as a bus conductor until March, 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 Agra Regional Medical Center 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 $1,050 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $490
• Scans and lab work: $150
• Transport to Agra Regional Medical Center: $70
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $90
• Household costs while unable to work: $250
With deep gratitude,
Rutuja
