I was diagnosed of cancer and I am requesting for financial help
Hello, my mum was diagnosed with cervical cancer last year, right now she is at nairobi west hospital after the cancer caused uremia, she is not getting any treatment because of the outstanding bill….. We have managed to pay around 300k please help us,,,,
Hello,
Over the weekend I went to my village and found this man from the neighbourhood who settled in the area after 2007 PEV. He is in his 60’s but he is a bachelor. In the past 1 year, he had been suffering acute pain from the back of his mouth. He went to the dispensaries around the area and when he realised that the condition was getting worse than improving, he visited Naivasha District Hospital. At Naivasha Hospital, he was told that he was suffering from cancer and was referred to KNH. He however could not make it due to financial conditions. As I write this, it is over a month since he was referred to KNH and the condition is getting worse. When I visited him on Saturday, I found him screaming in tears due to pain in his room. He can’t work, he doesn’t have any savings….he has nothing left in his world apart from pain and tears. The neighbours have taken some initiative to give him food but not consistently. He doesn’t lock his door because sometimes he is unable to get out of bed so that whenever a neighbour comes, he/she can just enter. I left him in pain and tears. I have had sleepless nights since then wondering how to help him. I have decided to write this because I don’t know how to assist him coz I have no money and no connections to get him to KNH. I know you cannot let him die while you can assist him in one way or the other. Please, if you feel you can assist him, feel free to contact me for more details.
Thank you
