Care for Kurniawan, 75: help cover a carer and medication in Jakarta
Kurniawan can't afford the care He needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $600.

I'm caring for my father, who's 75. After a heart attack Kurniawan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Kurniawan desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Kurniawan worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $600 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $410
• Medication and prescriptions: $105
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $85
Thank you for reading my story.

Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless
wishing you the best, Indah. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Sent it to 11 people at work. All the best
