Standing with Umar: Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs

Umar was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in March. The oncology team at Lahore Regional Medical Center has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Umar is 57, worked as a hairdresser until March, 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 Lahore Regional Medical Center 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 $900 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $390 • Scans and lab work: $220 • Transport to Lahore Regional Medical Center: $50 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $65 • Household costs while unable to work: $175 Thank you so much. - Rukhsar
