Sinta's colon cancer treatment fund
Sinta is facing colon cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇮🇩 Indonesia2,498 views
Sinta was diagnosed with colon cancer in June. The oncology team at Bandung University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks.
Sinta is 55, worked as a bank teller until June, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Bandung University Hospital 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 her shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $1,950 goes:
• Household costs while unable to work: $320
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,250
• Transport to Bandung University Hospital: $150
• Scans and lab work: $230
Thanks for reading all this.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sinta
Household costs while unable to work is $320 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.
Sending love, Rizky. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
keep going, Rizky. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Wishing you the best, Rizky. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Put this on a community board in Dhaka this morning. Blessings
