Hesti was diagnosed with a hernia that has become strangulated in August. The surgeon at Semarang Community Hospital recommended knee replacement surgery, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,050, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $850 short. my daughter has been in and out of Semarang Community Hospital since August. The doctors say a hernia that has become strangulated will get worse without knee replacement surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,050 is more than we can find. While we wait, Hesti struggles with daily life and can't climb stairs. 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 Hesti 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 $850 goes: • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $80 • Post-operative medication: $20 • Physiotherapy sessions: $95 • Travel and lodging for the family: $80 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $575 I hope life is good to you. - Wulan
