Ani was diagnosed with a herniated spinal disc in August. The surgeon at Jakarta Barat University Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $750, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $450 short. my mother has been in and out of Jakarta Barat University Hospital since August. The doctors say a herniated spinal disc will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Ani struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Rehabilitation is expected to take about 6 weeks. During that time Ani won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $450 goes: โ€ข Hospital stay (4 nights): $310 โ€ข Post-operative medication: $65 โ€ข Physiotherapy sessions: $75 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Iwan
