Waseem's stage 2 breast cancer treatment fund

Waseem is facing stage 2 breast cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Waseem was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in August. The oncology team at Lahore University Hospital has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Waseem is 50, worked as a construction supervisor 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 Lahore University Hospital 3 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 $1,400 goes: • Scans and lab work: $130 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $95 • Transport to Lahore University Hospital: $80 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,095 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
