Sinta was diagnosed with gallstones with repeated infections in January. The surgeon at Jakarta Barat University Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $2,400, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $1,200 short. my daughter has been in and out of Jakarta Barat University Hospital since January. The doctors say gallstones with repeated infections will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $2,400 is more than we can find. While we wait, Sinta 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. The recovery period is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Sinta 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 $1,200 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $500 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $430 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $110 • Post-operative medication: $60 • Physiotherapy sessions: $45 • Travel and lodging for the family: $55 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Hope things get better soon, Winda. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Medellín so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Jakarta Barat.
