Standing with Rizky: stomach cancer treatment costs

Rizky is facing stomach cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Rizky was diagnosed with stomach cancer in February. The oncology team at the Bogor Oncology Institute has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in May. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Rizky is 24, worked as a construction supervisor until February, 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 the Bogor Oncology Institute 5 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 $1,750 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,100 • Scans and lab work: $185 • Transport to the Bogor Oncology Institute: $140 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85 • Household costs while unable to work: $240 Thank you so much. - Putri

    • stay strong, Putri. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. God bless

      • Hope it all works out, Putri. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 6 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything

        • Wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Bogor.

            Wishing you the best, Putri. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.

            • Thinking of you and your family, Putri. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.

              • you're not alone, Putri. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

                • It takes guts to ask. Well done. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Manila
