Standing with Yetunde: a rare sarcoma treatment costs
12 rounds of treatment are planned at Kano Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Yetunde was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in June. The oncology team at Kano Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Yetunde is 29, worked as a construction supervisor until June, 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 Kano Cancer Centre 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $450 goes:
• Transport to Kano Cancer Centre: $65
• Household costs while unable to work: $340
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $45
If you're reading this, thank you.

So sorry you're going through this, Kelechi. Hope this works out for you.
you're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Love from Epe.
Hope it all works out, Kelechi. Shared it with a few friends. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Kano
Good luck, Kelechi. Your post was clear and honest.
