Tarık's a rare sarcoma treatment fund
4 rounds of treatment are planned at Kassel Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇩🇪 Kassel, Hesse, Germany2,726 views
Tarık was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in May. The oncology team at Kassel Cancer Centre has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Tarık is 32, worked as a tailor until May, 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 Kassel Cancer Centre 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $7,050 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $550
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,050
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $5,000
• Transport to Kassel Cancer Centre: $450
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

wishing you the best, Ahmet. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Sukkur.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Tarık
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. scans and lab work is the biggest at $550. I'll keep the page updated.
Sending good thoughts, Ahmet. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Halifax but we're thinking of you
Hang in there. Get well soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Kassel
So sorry you're going through this, Ahmet. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Wishing you the best, Ahmet. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best.
hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Hyderabad so I could bring a meal
Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Fort Worth.
Thanks for sharing this, Ahmet. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Kelowna.
Sending love, Ahmet. This could happen to any of us. Take care
