Erlangga was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in August. The surgeon at Jakarta Selatan Regional Medical Center recommended hip replacement surgery, and He is scheduled for October. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $710, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $500 short. my husband has been in and out of Jakarta Selatan Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without hip replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $710 is more than we can find. While we wait, Erlangga 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 10 weeks. During that time Erlangga 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 $500 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $60 • Hospital stay (5 nights): $390 • Post-operative medication: $50 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
