William's multiple myeloma treatment fund
William is facing multiple myeloma and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇬🇭 Ghana2,227 views
William was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in August. The oncology team at Accra University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
William is 36, worked as a farmer 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 Accra University Hospital 5 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 $750 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $55
• Transport to Accra University Hospital: $105
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $590
With deep gratitude,
Solomon

Thank you all. We're at 23% now ($174). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward chemotherapy and medication not covered.
