The parents of baby Keysha Ode, born in Ambon on January 20, 2024, contacted Berkat Ambon. They live in Tantui, Kampung Jawa Atas. Keysha's father, Farul Ode, is 35 years old and works as a motorcycle taxi driver.
Keysha has been diagnosed with a congenital heart defect, and the doctors have recommended that she be referred outside of Ambon for surgery. However, the family cannot afford the expenses due to financial limitations.
If anyone is willing to help with Keysha's travel expenses, they can contact Berkat Ambon. For accommodation at the hospital, Berkat Ambon has arrangements with shelters in Makassar and Jakarta. May the Lord Jesus make a way so that Keysha can receive treatment as soon as possible.
Update 9/22/24: According to the examination, Keysha has a heart leak, but there is also an issue with a blood vessel and fluid in her head. They are planning to do another echocardiogram. May the Lord Jesus bring good results after the echo. Keysha is still experiencing seizures. The prayers of many for Keysha are being heard and answered by the Lord Jesus. Keysha will surely recover. May the Lord Jesus bless and strengthen Keysha's parents and the entire family, keeping them healthy so they can continue to care for Keysha.
Update 9/24/24:
Keysha Ode needs to undergo another echo and must be referred outside of Ambon for further treatment. The doctor explained that Keysha's journey requires medical assistance and an oxygen tank. Berkat Ambon has already contacted the shelter in Jakarta, and a place for Keysha has been arranged in case she is referred. The cost of Keysha's and her mother's tickets has already been covered by donations, but funds are still needed for medical support, a companion for Keysha, and the oxygen tank.
When Berkat Ambon visited Keysha earlier, her breathing was still labored, and according to her mother, Keysha's vision seems to not be functioning properly, and her leg movements are not yet like those of other children her age. Keysha’s mother said that this is due to the fluid in her head, as explained by the doctors.
Let’s pray for the best for Keysha, that the Lord Jesus will help her, and that all of Keysha's needs for her journey will be provided in miraculous ways. For those who wish to help Keysha, you can contact Berkat Ambon via Messenger.
Update 9/28/24:
Keysha is now ready to be referred for further treatment. The family is currently preparing all the necessary documents required for her stay at the shelter in Jakarta. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for providing all the needs for beloved Keysha.
