Fighting prostate cancer: help Umar afford treatment in Bogor
Supporting Umar through prostate cancer: medication, transport to Bogor University Hospital, and living costs while He can't work.
🇮🇩 West Java, Indonesia609 views
Umar was diagnosed with prostate cancer in April. The oncology team at Bogor University Hospital has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Umar is 39, worked as a shop owner until April, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Bogor University Hospital 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 his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $950 goes:
• Transport to Bogor University Hospital: $160
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $660
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $130
Every share and every dollar helps.

Hope it all works out, Eka. Get well soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
wishing you the best, Eka. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Yekaterinburg donated after I showed her your page.

Good luck. Get well soon. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Jeddah.
Sending strength. Wishing Umar a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Looking forward to the next update. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Bogor.
