Fitria's stage 2 breast cancer treatment fund
6 rounds of treatment are planned at Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

In August I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. My oncology team at Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in November. I was told to expect about 12 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 26, I worked as a primary school teacher until August, and I have been the main earner for my household.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre 2 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly.
My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $650 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $210
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $125
• Household costs while unable to work: $170
• Transport to Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre: $145
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
