Asad, my husband, passed away on 16 July after a stroke. He was 74 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $150 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 30 July. I have already used what I had for the hospital bills. My family is scattered, and many of us are out of work. We want Asad to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. The funds will be paid directly to the funeral home, and I'll share the receipt. Where the $150 goes: • Memorial gathering for the family: $30 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $100 • Transport of the deceased: $20 Thanks for reading all this. - Nimra

  • Hope things get better soon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Jakarta Selatan so I could bring a meal. All the best.

    • You're not alone, Nimra. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

      • Wishing you the best, Nimra. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier

        • Take care, Nimra. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Tokyo.
