Eunike Niken Latupeirissa

According to the information we received, Berkat Ambon volunteers visited EUNIKE (Niken) LATUPEIRISSA (23 years old), who lives in Batu Gajah Tengah. Niken's mother, Mrs. Selvy (50 years old), shared that Niken has been diagnosed with leukemia and is currently under the care of a specialist doctor while also taking herbal medicine. The doctor has recommended that Niken be referred outside Ambon for a biopsy and further treatment.

The family faces financial challenges for the next steps, including the cost of travel tickets for Niken and her companion, as well as the potential need for an oxygen tank. Brothers and sisters who wish to support Niken and her mother can reach out through Berkat Ambon messenger. Berkat Ambon will also coordinate with the shelter for Eunike. May God bless and strengthen them!

Update 1/25/25:

Eunike Latupeirissa has been diagnosed with leukemia. The doctor recommended that she urgently travel for a biopsy. Ideally, she should have already been in Makassar by yesterday or at the latest today, before the referred doctor leaves for Umrah. However, due to financial limitations, the trip has been delayed.

Today, the Berkat Ambon team met and prayed with Niken, asking for the mercy of the Lord Jesus. We believe that God, in His miraculous ways, will provide for all of Niken’s needs for her trip to Makassar, including tickets and other expenses. For those who would like to support Niken’s journey to Makassar can contact Berkat Ambon via Messenger. May the Lord Jesus bless and take care of Niken and all of us. Let us continue to fix our eyes on Him and place our hope in the Lord Jesus alone, for His eyes are always on His children who trust in Him.

Update 3/8/25:

We visited Eunike (Niken) Latupeirissa at the hospital. Niken was vomiting and weak, so she was taken to the hospital. Her right eye is also bruised from being hit, but praise the Lord Jesus, Niken's condition is improving. There is no bleeding, and her hemoglobin level is normal. The doctor recommends that after being discharged from the hospital, Niken should be referred to Makassar for a biopsy. We all believe that Niken's trip to Makassar is just for confirmation that Niken is healed, in the name of Jesus.

Currently, Niken is taking one of the supplements that God is using to help what the body needs for healing. May God bless Ma Evy with good health, strength, and encouragement to continue supporting Niken. May all the needs and necessities be provided by the Lord Jesus.

Update 3/31/25:

Today, we bought supplements for Niken. It was previously purchased and greatly helped in her health recovery. Because it had been consumed before, Niken felt the improvements, but due to financial limitations, she could no longer continue taking them. We praise the Lord for his countinous grace.

Update 4/15/25:

Niken was just discharged from the hospital again due to bleeding, and the doctor has advised her to undergo a biopsy in Makassar as soon as possible. The plan, God willing and if tickets are available, is for Niken and her mother to travel to Makassar on April 19, the day after the Holy Communion service on Friday, April 18.

The Lord Jesus, in His miraculous ways, will help Niken with all her needs.Praise God, a place to stay in Makassar has already been arranged.

To those who feel led to share love and help Niken, you may contact Berkat Ambon via Messenger.

Update 4/19/25:

Niken has arrived in Makassar with her mother for a biopsy procedure. Berkat Ambon helped with the tickets for Niken and her mother to go to Makassar. The Berkat Ambon volunteers in Makassar will pray together with Niken and her mother as they prepare for the next steps. Only the love and help of the Lord Jesus can truly help Niken.

Update 4/23/25:

Praise the Lord, we visited and prayed for Niken once again. Lord Jesus, please help and heal Niken's condition

Update 4/29/25:

Last night, Niken was admitted to the hospital again due to bleeding and a drop in hemoglobin levels. A volunteer from Berkat Ambon in Makassar, Pastor Yopi Souhuwat, visited and prayed with Niken. Let us all pray for Niken—may the holy blood of Jesus flow through her body, replacing all the blood that has been lost. May the precious blood of Jesus restore the function of every organ in Niken's body, and by the stripes of Jesus, may she be healed and fully restored. Niken is a patient with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) and is in Makassar for a bone marrow biopsy.

Update 5/2/25: Yesterday, after the blood transfusion, Niken’s hemoglobin (HB) level reached 8, but there was still bleeding during the transfusion. According to the doctor, it’s not a problem and a biopsy can still be done. However, it turns out Niken’s platelet count is low, so another transfusion is needed to increase the platelets. Niken’s mom has already signed the consent form for 8 bags of red blood cell transfusion. Praise God, everything has gone smoothly, and Niken is now undergoing the biopsy process. We really need prayer support from all for Niken and for all the patients being cared for by Berkat Ambon.
