Wahyu was diagnosed with a deviated septum causing chronic infections in February. The surgeon at Malang Orthopedic Institute recommended cataract surgery, and He is scheduled for May. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,300, and after what our health plan will pay we're still $650 short.
my son has been in and out of Malang Orthopedic Institute since February. The doctors say a deviated septum causing chronic infections will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,300 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Wahyu struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. 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 10 weeks. During that time Wahyu won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing.
I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section.
Where the $650 goes:
• Post-operative medication: $50
• Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $530
• Physiotherapy sessions: $70
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

how is Wahyu doing now?
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Çankaya.
Wishing you the best. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted. Take care.
Hang in there, Sinta. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
I hope things turn around soon. My husband and I read this together. Take care
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 32 people at work.
