Standing with Samuel: Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs

Supporting Samuel through Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Atlanta Cancer Centre, and living costs while He can't work.

Samuel was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in July. The oncology team at Atlanta Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in October. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Samuel is 49, worked as a tailor 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 Atlanta Cancer Centre 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 $10,400 goes: • Transport to Atlanta Cancer Centre: $470 • Scans and lab work: $1,450 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $8,480 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
