Oky's early-stage lung cancer treatment fund
8 rounds of treatment are planned at Bandung Cancer Centre; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
Anywhere in the world977 views
Oky was diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer in May. The oncology team at Bandung Cancer Centre has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in August. He will be away from work for about 10 weeks.
Oky is 30, worked as a construction supervisor until May, 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 Bandung Cancer Centre 5 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 $1,500 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $60
• Household costs while unable to work: $270
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,100
• Transport to Bandung Cancer Centre: $70
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Incheon so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Fort Worth so I could bring a meal. Blessings
