Imam's stomach cancer treatment fund
10 rounds of treatment are planned at the Denpasar Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇮🇩 Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia738 views
Imam was diagnosed with stomach cancer in June. The oncology team at the Denpasar Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in September. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks.
Imam is 35, 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 the Denpasar 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 his shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $350 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85
• Transport to the Denpasar Oncology Institute: $70
• Scans and lab work: $195
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Best of luck. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Nakuru.
Praying for you, Dwi. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. Take care.
Get well soon. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Likoni.
Good luck, Dwi. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Denpasar.

rooting for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Johannesburg
keep going. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My husband and I read this together. All the best!
Hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Denpasar.
Sending love, Dwi. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Praying for you, Dwi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Praying for you, Dwi. This could happen to any of us. Take care.
Sending strength. Shared this with my family. After 9 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
