Surgery fund for Bagus: valve repair surgery in Bekasi

Bagus was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the right knee in April. The surgeon at Bekasi Orthopedic Institute recommended valve repair surgery, and He is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,750, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $1,050 short. my father has been in and out of Bekasi Orthopedic Institute since April. The doctors say osteoarthritis in the right knee will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Bagus struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 6 weeks. During that time Bagus won't be able to climb stairs, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $1,050 goes: • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $450 • Hospital stay (4 nights): $340 • Physiotherapy sessions: $90 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $105 • Post-operative medication: $65 Thanks for reading all this. - Lia
