Supporting Shova Giri in Her Fight Against Ovarian Cancer

Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters,

I'm reaching out to you today to support a fundraising campaign initiated by Subarna Giri, my wife’s nephew, who is courageously leading efforts to raise funds for his beloved mother, Shova Giri, in her battle against advanced stage ovarian cancer in Nepal.

“At just 52 years old, my mother received the devastating diagnosis, along with the added risk of breast cancer.

For those who know her, my mother embodies strength, grace, and resilience. She has always been the cornerstone of our family, giving selflessly without expecting anything in return. Now, it's our turn to rally around her and provide the support she needs in her fight against this relentless disease.

Ovarian cancer is often called the silent killer due to its subtle symptoms, leading to late-stage detection. Despite the challenges, neither my mother nor our family will back down from this fight.

Recently, she underwent a major surgery involving the removal of parts of her abdomen. The journey has been immensely taxing, both emotionally and financially. While we've managed so far with the generous support of family and friends, the road ahead remains uncertain and extremely challenging .

The expenses of her chemotherapy and ongoing maintenance therapy, possibly lasting for years, present a significant financial burden. Furthermore, the recommended PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy comes with its own tremendous costs, making the situation even more challenging. My father who was the sole earner in the family had to quit his job and returned to Nepal to dedicate his time for my mother's care.

That is why I am here to humbly request for any support possible. Any donation, regardless of size, will make a world of difference to my mother. Your generosity will enable her to commence treatment as soon as possible, offering hope in her battle against cancer.

Thank you for standing with us against this disease and helping my mother live the life she worked so hard for only to be taken away from this gut wrenching diagnosis.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Subarna Giri”
