Standing with Dinda: multiple myeloma treatment costs
Supporting Dinda through multiple myeloma: medication, transport to Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre, and living costs while She can't work.
🇮🇩 DKI Jakarta, Indonesia1,598 views
In February I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. My oncology team at Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre has planned 12 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in June. I was told to expect about 10 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 49, I worked as a bus conductor until February, and I have been the main earner for my household.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre 4 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly.
My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $800 goes:
• Transport to Jakarta Selatan Cancer Centre: $150
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $520
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $130
I hope life is good to you.
