Standing with Tariq: stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment costs
Supporting Tariq through stage 3 ovarian cancer: medication, transport to Rawalpindi Regional Medical Center, and living costs while He can't work.
🇵🇰 46057, Rawalpindi, Punjab, Pakistan1,471 views
Tariq was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in September. The oncology team at Rawalpindi Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Tariq is 26, worked as a cleaner at a hospital 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 Rawalpindi Regional Medical Center 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $500 goes:
• Transport to Rawalpindi Regional Medical Center: $120
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $50
• Scans and lab work: $180
• Household costs while unable to work: $150
Every share and every dollar helps.

Keep going. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Mar del Plata but we're thinking of you.
Keep going, Afshan. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
