Farah’s Solo Battle Against Cancer: Urgent Support Needed

 

Update: Feb 2025 - I have been fighting hard, till this minute in ICU, and am really seeking for your prayers and any financial help.

I hope no one shall go through all this pain. But since its inevitable for me, I am fighting it.

Hello everyone,

My name is Farah Afroz Esha, and I’m reaching out in the most difficult moment of my life. I came to the U.S. as an international student, full of hope for a bright future. Last year, I fought and overcame colorectal cancer with the support of my beloved uncle, who was more than family—he was my guardian in this country. Heartbreakingly, he recently passed away, and my dad has passed away too, leaving me here alone without any financial help.

Now, my life has taken another devastating turn. I’ve just been diagnosed with early-stage stomach cancer. The emotional trauma of my last diagnosis has returned, but this time, the financial burden feels impossible. As an international student, I have no family support and no help from back home. I’m truly alone, facing both the illness and treatment costs. Every week, I undergo treatments that I simply cannot afford, and my savings are completely depleted. Currently my each Chemo/Radiotherapy is cost me $2000-$2500 out of pocket every 2 weeks.

Without immediate help, I won’t be able to continue my fight.

I need to raise $45,000 to cover the costs of my weekly treatments and essential living expenses. I’m reaching out for your support to help me manage these overwhelming medical costs and give me a real chance at survival. Your donation—no matter how small—would mean the world to me. It would not only help with my medical expenses but also remind me that I’m not alone in this battle.

I'm a kind baker at heart, and making cakes for others brings me joy. I am determined to pay forward the kindness I receive now. With the holidays approaching, I want to give back by baking treats for the homeless or families in need, sharing hope in small ways as soon as I’m able. If you or someone you know would like a treat, I’d love to send one your way once I recover.

Thank you for reading my story and for any help you can offer. Please donate, share this page, and stand with me in this fight for my life. Your generosity means the world to me.

If anyone has any questions or would like proof of diagnosis, please do not hesitate to contact me.

With heartfelt gratitude

Farah
