Standing with Dian: stage 2 breast cancer treatment costs

Dian was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in August. The oncology team at Jakarta Selatan University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in November. She will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Dian is 47, worked as a tailor until August, 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 Jakarta Selatan University Hospital 2 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. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $1,750 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,200 • Household costs while unable to work: $390 • Transport to Jakarta Selatan University Hospital: $160 Every share and every dollar helps.
