After severe cataracts in both eyes, Indah was cleared for valve repair surgery, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Indah was diagnosed with severe cataracts in both eyes in January. The surgeon at Jakarta Community Hospital recommended valve repair surgery, and She is scheduled for April. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $750, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $450 short. my daughter has been in and out of Jakarta Community Hospital since January. The doctors say severe cataracts in both eyes will get worse without valve repair surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $750 is more than we can find. While we wait, Indah struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 3 weeks. During that time Indah won't be able to work a full shift, 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 $450 goes: • Travel and lodging for the family: $65 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $310 • Post-operative medication: $30 • Physiotherapy sessions: $45 Glad we found this place.

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($100 in total) I met with the hospital and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
