Kapanlagi.com - Mona Ratuliu reveals many changes that have occurred in her life during the Covid-19 pandemic. In addition to giving birth to her fourth child during the pandemic, she also had to give breast milk and care for her prematurely born nephew. As her sister-in-law, Eneng Ulan, died two days after giving birth due to Covid-19 exposure.

“There was a situation that changed when my sister-in-law was 8 months pregnant and got the delta variant. After giving birth, my sister-in-law passed away. Everyone in the family was confused about who would breastfeed the baby. I asked my sister if we could take care of it first so that he could at least get breast milk because I was also breastfeeding,” said Mona Ratuliu during the #MadeforEveryFamily Prudential Indonesia event in South Jakarta on Thursday (16/6).

1. Wanting to Care for Balint Forever

It's hard to believe that her nephew, Balint, is still living with Mona Ratuliu until now. She and her husband, Indra Brasco, plan to care for Balint forever. Now their home is even livelier because they have five children.

“Until now (Balint) is still with us, maybe the plan is to keep him with us forever. I now have 4+1=5 children. Our home is even more lively,” she said.

2. Family Support

Because of that incident, Mona Ratuliu became more aware that besides immediate family, support from extended family is also very important. Therefore, she always maintains good relationships with her extended family.

“Family is a support system, especially during a pandemic when everything is difficult, but the most advanced (helpful) are always the extended family. We can't live alone. The principle is that relationships with extended family must be fought for because we will definitely need them. We are not enough with just a babysitter because I hope the extended family will also help take care,” she explained.

3. The Importance of Life Insurance

Not only that, Mona Ratuliu also realized that life insurance is very important. Not only for immediate family but also to help her extended family who are struggling.

“I see that life insurance is important for us to support the family members who pass away because we need rescue funds. After the pandemic, I realized that many unexpected things can happen. Before, I never upgraded my insurance. Now, with 4+1 children, the costs are different. We need to keep upgrading and have funds that can save us. Many things need to be changed because we are not only a support system for immediate family but also for our extended family. Because we want to help family members who are in need,” said Mona Ratuliu.

4. Expanding Access to Health and Financial Protection

Mona Ratuliu's experience is in line with Prudential's program that launched the #MadeforEverFamily campaign, which aims to expand access to health and financial protection not only for immediate family but also for other family members.

“We want Indonesian families to be healthy and prosperous. We can be the best solution,” said Luskito Hambali, Chief Marketing and Communication Officer of Prudential Indonesia.
