Help Wawan pay for knee replacement surgery at Jakarta Barat Community Hospital
Wawan needs knee replacement surgery at Jakarta Barat Community Hospital and the family is $850 short of the hospital's estimate.
🇮🇩 Jakarta Barat, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia1,927 views
Wawan was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in April. The surgeon at Jakarta Barat Community Hospital recommended knee replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,400, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $850 short.
my brother has been in and out of Jakarta Barat Community Hospital since April. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without knee replacement 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, Wawan struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Wawan won't be able to walk without help, 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:
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $450
• Hospital stay (2 nights): $210
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $70
• Post-operative medication: $50
• Physiotherapy sessions: $40
• Travel and lodging for the family: $30
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

hang in there, Vino. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side
Sending good thoughts. Hope the doctors have good news. It's not much but it's yours. Take care

Thinking of you and your family, Vino. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Newport.
Hope things get better soon. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 28 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Nagpur donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
