Standing with Usha: non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Nagpur Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Usha was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in September. The oncology team at Nagpur Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 12 weeks.
Usha is 27, 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 her.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Nagpur Cancer Centre 5 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 $1,400 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $900
• Scans and lab work: $160
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $120
• Household costs while unable to work: $220
Glad we found this place.
