In August I was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor. My surgeon at Jakarta University Hospital recommended palate reconstruction surgery, and I have been placed on the schedule for November. The hospital's financial office gave me a written estimate of $1,100, and after what the government subsidy will pay, I'm still $550 short. Doctors at Jakarta University Hospital told me a benign brain tumor will get worse without palate reconstruction surgery. I work as a delivery rider, and I have saved what I can, but the estimate of $1,100 is far beyond what I've. Until the surgery I can't work full days, and my hours as a delivery rider have already been cut. Every week of waiting means more pain and a bigger risk. The recovery period is expected to take about 4 weeks. I'll not be able to stand for more than ten minutes during that time, so this has become a financial emergency as well as a medical one. 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 $550 goes: • Post-operative medication: $35 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $420 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $95 Glad we found this place.
