Standing with Eko: stomach cancer treatment costs

8 rounds of treatment are planned at Jakarta Barat University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Eko was diagnosed with stomach cancer in March. The oncology team at Jakarta Barat University Hospital has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in June. He will be away from work for about 5 weeks. Eko is 50, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until March, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Jakarta Barat University Hospital 3 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 his shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $950 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $40 • Transport to Jakarta Barat University Hospital: $60 • Household costs while unable to work: $340 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $510 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Siti
