Standing with Pandu: stage 3 ovarian cancer treatment costs
12 rounds of treatment are planned at the Magelang Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇮🇩 Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia989 views
In August I was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. My oncology team at the Magelang Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in November. I was told to expect about 6 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 36, I worked as a bakery worker until August, 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 the Magelang Oncology Institute 2 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 $1,550 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $220
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $55
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,100
• Household costs while unable to work: $175
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Pandu.
Sure. The biggest one is scans and lab work, $220. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one.
Praying for you. Wishing Pandu a smooth procedure and a full recovery. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
