Help Ashesh get a life-saving bone marrow transplant
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Ashesh.
I am a 25-year-old of Nepalese descent, living in Australia for the past six years under a Temporary Resident Visa. I urgently need your support to raise funds for a life-saving bone marrow transplant.
Why I Need Your Help
In September 2024, I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Despite undergoing an intensive chemotherapy treatment program, a biopsy in January 2025 revealed that the chemotherapy was not achieving the desired results.
The next step in my treatment is a bone marrow transplant. Unfortunately, my resident status does not provide Medicare coverage, and my private health insurance does not cover the costs of the transplant, which is estimated to be AUD $200,000. This amount needs to be paid in full before the specialist can perform the transplant.
How You Can Make a Difference
Your donation, no matter how big or small, will bring me one step closer to receiving the treatment I desperately need. Here’s how your contribution can help:
$50-$100 will contribute towards to a day’s worth of medication
($3,000/day for 28 days prior to the bone marrow transplant, a total of $84,000)
$100-$500 can contribute significantly towards the anticipated transplant procedural costs total $200,000
(quoted costs, will have a firmer view on total cost post my specialist appointment towards end of January 2025)
Every bit counts and brings me closer to a healthier future.
Stay Updated
I will keep you updated on my progress and how your generous contributions are making a difference. Your support means the world to me.
Thank You
Thank you for your kindness and support. I would be grateful for any support that you find it in your heart to give.
Yours sincerely,
Ashesh
