A good Thai friend of 8 years has a father with stage 3 colon cancer with small cancer nodules the lungs.
Following surgery recovery, he will begin chemotherapy at the Udon Thani Cancer Center.

 

She has savings to pay up to 1,000,000 Thb, and needs advice on best way forward regarding a long-term payment plan or similar. 
 

She is very responsible, intends to cover the cost herself 100% and wants to prepare for this serious life-event. 
 

Does anyone have experience with this type of situation, and what options available to Thai citizens regarding payment?

 

Please serious replies only.

Thank you

If it is colon cancer that has metastasized to the lungs it is stage 4.

 

Cost to me of Xelox which is the first line treatment Chula suggested was around 7,000 per session every three weeks for 6 months, 8 in total. Oxaliplatin is the expensive component, other alternatives like FOLFORI are cheaper.
