Standing with Siva: thyroid cancer treatment costs
4 rounds of treatment are planned at the Amritsar Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇮🇳 India1,270 views
Siva was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in September. The oncology team at the Amritsar Oncology Institute has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Siva is 24, worked as a nurse until September, 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 Amritsar 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $1,350 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $110
• Transport to the Amritsar Oncology Institute: $110
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,050
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $80
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
