Fighting stomach cancer: help Budi afford treatment in Jakarta Selatan

Budi is facing stomach cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Jakarta Selatan
Budi was diagnosed with stomach cancer in June. The oncology team at Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 3 weeks. Budi is 46, worked as a primary school teacher until June, 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 Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre 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 $1,800 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,200 • Scans and lab work: $200 • Transport to Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre: $135 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $110 • Household costs while unable to work: $155 I hope life is good to you.
