Standing with Selim: stomach cancer treatment costs

Selim was diagnosed with stomach cancer in April. The oncology team at the Gaziantep Oncology Institute has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 12 weeks. Selim is 50, worked as a farmer until April, 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 Gaziantep Oncology Institute 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 his shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $2,550 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,300 • Scans and lab work: $380 • Transport to the Gaziantep Oncology Institute: $310 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $120 • Household costs while unable to work: $440 Thanks for being kind about this. - Batuhan
