Depok

In December I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. My oncology team at Depok Regional Medical Center has planned 4 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in April. I was told to expect about 4 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 52, I worked as a taxi driver until December, 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 Depok Regional Medical Center 3 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. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,600 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $950 • Scans and lab work: $240 • Transport to Depok Regional Medical Center: $125 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $135 • Household costs while unable to work: $150 I hope life is good to you.

hang in there. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
