Surgery fund for Iwan: laparoscopic endometriosis surgery in Jakarta Selatan
A scheduled laparoscopic endometriosis surgery in December is out of reach without help covering $700 of the cost.
🇮🇩 Jakarta Selatan, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia1,831 views
Iwan was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst in August. The surgeon at Jakarta Selatan Regional Medical Center recommended laparoscopic endometriosis surgery, and He is scheduled for December. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $930, and after what my insurance will pay we're still $700 short.
my son has been in and out of Jakarta Selatan Regional Medical Center since August. The doctors say a large ovarian cyst will get worse without laparoscopic endometriosis surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $930 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Iwan struggles with daily life and can't look after the children alone. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. During that time Iwan won't be able to look after the children alone, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $700 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $115
• Physiotherapy sessions: $70
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $515

It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 19 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Toronto.
Thinking of you, Erlangga. Get well soon. Thinking of Jakarta Selatan.
Rooting for you, Erlangga. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope November is when things finally get easier!

Praying for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Gazipur.
