My name is Chizoba Onah I am reaching out on behalf of my dear friend Enakerakpo Ruth Ishioma, a 27-year-old young woman, mother of 5months old baby who is courageously battling Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML, M4 subtype).

Recently, Ruth received this devastating diagnosis, and her doctors have advised that she urgently begin treatment, which includes chemotherapy, blood supportive care, HLA typing, and a stem cell transplant. Without this treatment, Ruth’s chances of survival are greatly reduced.

The estimated cost of her treatment is ₦58.4 million (about 36,500 USD/

£29,200 GBP ), broken down as follows:

• Chemotherapy: ₦2,400,000

• Blood supportive treatment: ₦8,000,000

• HLA typing: ₦3,000,000

• Stem cell transplant: ₦45,000,000

(See hospital letter attached for full cost details from Celltek Healthcare Ltd., Benin City, Nigeria)

Ruth is in constant pain, weak, and fighting for her life, but her spirit remains strong. She dreams of beating this disease and living a full life with her loved ones.

We cannot do this without your help. Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly towards her hospital care, medications, and life-saving procedures. Even if you are unable to give financially, your prayers and sharing this fundraiser with others will mean the world.

Together, we can give Ruth a fighting chance.
