Vijay's non-Hodgkin lymphoma treatment fund
Vijay is facing non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇮🇳 Nagpur, Maharashtra, India2,353 views
Vijay was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in August. The oncology team at Nagpur Regional Medical Center has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in December. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Vijay is 52, worked as a bakery worker until August, 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 Nagpur Regional Medical Center 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 his shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,200 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $220
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $120
• Scans and lab work: $185
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $675
Glad we found this place.
Updates from Priya
Update from Nagpur: I met with the treatment center and confirmed the amounts. We're at 54% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Lagos this morning. Greetings from Lagos
Take care, Priya. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Thủ Đức this morning. Greetings from Thủ Đức
Wishing you peace, Priya. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Sending love, Priya. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Sending good thoughts. Your post was clear and honest. Don't give up. God bless.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Pune
