Ahmad was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in September. The surgeon at Depok Regional Medical Center recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and He is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,350, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $950 short. my son has been in and out of Depok Regional Medical Center since September. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,350 is more than we can find. While we wait, Ahmad struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Ahmad won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $950 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $420 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $220 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $90 • Post-operative medication: $40 • Physiotherapy sessions: $110 • Travel and lodging for the family: $70 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Updates from Vino

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($154 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Update from Depok: I met with the hospital and confirmed the amounts. We're at 5% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
