Portrait of Joanna Alexandra's Resilience as a Wife and Mother, Taking Care of a Special Needs Child - Accompanying Her Husband Until the End of Life

Joanna Alexandra met Raditya Oloan when they were still in junior high school. And since then, they started to build their friendship.

Their closeness as friends eventually grew into the seeds of love, and they decided to start dating after Joanna graduated from high school.

They eventually solidified their love with marriage. When they got married, they were still very young, Joanna was 20 years old while Raditya was 23 years old. After getting married, Joanna decided to quit the entertainment industry, and her husband chose to become a pastor.

After almost 14 years together, Joanna and Raditya were blessed with four children, Zuriel, Zeraiah, Zoey, and Ziona. And for the sake of their children, Joanna finally quit being an artist and chose to take care of her children.

From her four children, her eldest daughter, Ziona Eden Panggabean, was diagnosed with a rare disease since she was a baby. Joanna finally dedicated herself to focus on taking care of her youngest child.

As a mother, she never gives up in taking care of her daughter. She also doesn't differentiate the love between her three children and Ziona. She is a great role model.

Life's challenges struck Joanna again. In early April, her husband had to be hospitalized at RS Wisma Atlet due to being exposed to COVID-19, and a few days later, Joanna and her three children also had to undergo isolation at Wisma Atlet.

Joanna and her three children were finally declared recovered from covid-19. Meanwhile, her husband had to struggle with his other illness, until finally he had to undergo intensive care treatment in the ICU.

The husband was finally declared negative for covid-19, but he had to struggle with another illness that also attacked his organs. Until finally, he had to receive intensive care treatment in the ICU and breathe with the help of a ventilator.

However, it turns out that God has another plan. Yesterday, Thursday (6/5/2021), Raditya Oloan passed away, leaving Joanna and their four young children behind.

Before passing away, Joanna did not want to give up on her husband's condition. She continued to pray for her husband's recovery so that they could be reunited and have dinner together. Rest in Peace, Raditya Oloan.
