Standing with Eka: colon cancer treatment costs
Eka is facing colon cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇮🇩 Indonesia1,095 views
Eka was diagnosed with colon cancer in June. The oncology team at Bogor Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in September. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Eka is 48, worked as a shop owner 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 Bogor Regional Medical Center 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.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $200
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $670
• Household costs while unable to work: $230

Hope you get there. After 12 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best
Hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor in Nagpur donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Bogor.
Praying for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Please keep us posted
Sending love, Sinta. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Jakarta Barat
Sending strength. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Bogor.
So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 22 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Bogor!
