Help Dewi pay for a partial thyroidectomy at Semarang Community Hospital
A scheduled a partial thyroidectomy in August is out of reach without help covering $850 of the cost.

Dewi was diagnosed with an aortic valve defect in April. The surgeon at Semarang Community Hospital recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for August. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,700, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $850 short.
my sister has been in and out of Semarang Community Hospital since April. The doctors say an aortic valve defect will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,700 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Dewi 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.
Recovery is expected to take about 7 weeks. During that time Dewi 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 $850 goes:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $380
• Hospital stay (3 nights): $230
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $40
• Post-operative medication: $35
• Physiotherapy sessions: $110
• Travel and lodging for the family: $55
Thank you so much.

Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Vigo so I could bring a meal. Take care.
hope things get better soon, Fitri. Your post was clear and honest. Blessings.
Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 30 people at work. Love from Bang Khen.
