Tabitha was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in May. The oncology team at Zanzibar City University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Tabitha is 31, worked as a bakery worker until May, 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 Zanzibar City University Hospital 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 $900 goes: โ€ข Transport to Zanzibar City University Hospital: $130 โ€ข Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $45 โ€ข Household costs while unable to work: $280 โ€ข Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $445 With deep gratitude, Hamisi
