Fighting multiple myeloma: help Rina afford treatment in Depok
12 rounds of treatment are planned at the Depok Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇮🇩 Indonesia525 views
Rina was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in July. The oncology team at the Depok Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Rina is 34, worked as a taxi driver until July, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to the Depok Oncology Institute 4 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly.
We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $500 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $175
• Transport to the Depok Oncology Institute: $80
• Scans and lab work: $245
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Wishing you peace. Wishing Rina a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
best of luck, Bunga. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
