Dewi was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in July. The surgeon at Jakarta Selatan Community Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,400, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $850 short. my daughter has been in and out of Jakarta Selatan Community Hospital since July. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Dewi struggles with daily life and can't drive. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Dewi won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did. Where the $850 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $65 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $430 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70 • Hospital stay (3 nights): $285 I hope life is good to you. - Dimas
