Six years ago, Dende and Ahmad faced serious challenges at a very young age. Their heart conditions made even simple everyday activities difficult, and both needed heart surgery to have the chance to live healthier lives.

With funds raised through Yayasan Peduli Anak, both boys were able to undergo surgery in Jakarta. Six years later, there is encouraging news to share. Dende can now walk and play normally, while Ahmad spends his days at the Peduli Anak Centre, learning and playing with his friends.

Dende Can Now Walk and Play

Before his surgery, Dende was very weak due to his congenital heart condition. His skin and lips sometimes turned blue, and he lost consciousness on several occasions. Surgery was an important step towards giving him a chance to grow up healthier.

Today, Dende can walk and play normally. Activities that were once difficult have become part of his everyday life. Seeing him move around and enjoy playtime is a welcome change after the challenges he faced as a young child.

Ahmad Is Growing at Peduli Anak

Heart surgery was also an important turning point for Ahmad. His heart condition had affected his ability to carry out everyday activities, but with the help raised for his treatment, he was able to undergo surgery and move forward.

Today, Ahmad lives at the Peduli Anak Centre, where he can learn, play, and spend time with his friends. He has a caring environment in which to grow alongside other children. From taking part in learning activities to enjoying time with his friends, he now has more opportunities to experience the everyday moments of childhood.

Six years may seem like a short time, but they have marked an important chapter in Dende and Ahmad’s lives. They once needed help to access life-changing heart surgery. Today, Dende can walk and play normally, while Ahmad has a place where he can learn, play, and grow.

We are grateful to everyone who helped Dende and Ahmad six years ago. The kindness they received then remains an important part of their story today. Their progress reminds us that behind every act of support is a child with a life still unfolding, new opportunities ahead, and the chance to enjoy childhood more fully.
