Standing with Wafa: non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment costs
Supporting Wafa through non-Hodgkin lymphoma: medication, transport to Heliopolis Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
Anywhere in the world1,670 views
Wafa was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in March. The oncology team at Heliopolis Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in May. She will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Wafa is 44, worked as a taxi driver until March, 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 Heliopolis 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $700 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $320
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $60
• Scans and lab work: $240
• Transport to Heliopolis Cancer Centre: $80
Thanks for reading all this.

thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 35 people at work. Take care.
Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Dhaka this morning. God bless
Hang in there, Ali. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
looking forward to the next update. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Nottingham.
Sending good thoughts. Get well soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
