Gallbladder removal for Dinda: covering what insurance won't
Dinda needs gallbladder removal at Bandung Regional Medical Center and the family is $600 short of the hospital's estimate.

Dinda was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in September. The surgeon at Bandung Regional Medical Center recommended gallbladder removal, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,200, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $600 short.
my mother has been in and out of Bandung Regional Medical Center since September. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,200 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Dinda struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. 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 4 weeks. During that time Dinda won't be able to lift anything heavy, 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 $600 goes:
• Post-operative medication: $30
• Travel and lodging for the family: $75
• Hospital stay (5 nights): $195
• Physiotherapy sessions: $60
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $240
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Take care, Slamet. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't give up.
You're not alone. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We're a small family in León but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Best of luck, Slamet. Shared this with my family
Take care, Slamet. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. It's not much but it's yours.
Hang in there, Slamet. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless
hope it all works out, Slamet. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Wrocław.
