Ika was diagnosed with a torn ligament that needs reconstruction in August. The surgeon at Jakarta Barat Orthopedic Institute recommended a partial thyroidectomy, and She is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,300, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $650 short. my daughter has been in and out of Jakarta Barat Orthopedic Institute since August. The doctors say a torn ligament that needs reconstruction will get worse without a partial thyroidectomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,300 is more than we can find. While we wait, Ika struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 5 weeks. During that time Ika won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $650 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $55 • Travel and lodging for the family: $40 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $555 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
