Mysuru
Sultana was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in April. The oncology team at Mysuru University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Sultana is 34, worked as a taxi driver until April, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Mysuru University Hospital 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 her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,300 goes: โ€ข Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $740 โ€ข Scans and lab work: $185 โ€ข Transport to Mysuru University Hospital: $90 โ€ข Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $100 โ€ข Household costs while unable to work: $185 Thanks for reading all this.
