Meydellin Pesiwarissa

Updated: Apr 15

Meydellin Pesiwarissa, born in Ambon on December 23, 2021, along with her mother, Ludriyati Pesiwarissa, 28 years old, a housewife, residing in SBB, Waesamu Village.

Currently, Mey is in need of assistance for an eye examination. Since she was six months old, white spots have started appearing on Mey's eyeballs. During a free medical check-up at the local church with a team of doctors from Ambon, the doctors mentioned that she needed surgery. However, due to financial constraints, it has been delayed.


Berkat Ambon will help with transportation to Ambon and to the hospital. The plan is to immediately arrange BPJS (Indonesia's national health insurance) in Ambon. Previously, a request for KIS (Health Insurance Card) was submitted for further treatment, but nothing has been approved yet. The family also plans to make BPJS for the child, but they are still facing financial challenges. Brothers and sisters who wish to help Mey can contact Berkat Ambon via messenger. Lord Jesus has brought Mey’s mother together with Berkat Ambon, and surely God has a way to help Mey.


Update 1/14/25:

Praise the Lord! Volunteers from Berkat Ambon accompanied Meydellin Pesiwarissa, a 3-year-old girl from the village of Waisamu, SBB, to facilitate her BPJS registration so she can receive treatment for her eyes. Since she was 6 months old, a white spot has appeared on her black iris, growing larger over time and affecting her vision. Berkat Ambon covered the BPJS registration fee, calculated from her age of 0 months to now, approximately 26 months.


Meydellin must return to Waisamu and wait for her BPJS to become active in about 45 days. Let us pray that Meydellin can soon receive treatment and recover from the threat of blindness. Brothers and sisters, you can support Meydellin and our ministry by reaching out to us. May God bless you all!


Update 2/5/25:

Praise the Lord, Meydellin, 3 years old, has undergone an eye examination with an eye doctor at the eye clinic in Ambon. During today's examination, the doctor recommended a referral for further treatment. The ultrasound results of her optic nerve were all good, so treatment can be done in Ambon.


Berkat Ambon has helped process her BPJS insurance, which will be available for use starting March 1. Her eye needs to be cleaned, and she must go to the hospital. Tomorrow, Ellin will return to the hospital according to the referral from the eye clinic. May the Lord Jesus ensure that everything goes smoothly.


Berkat Ambon is also providing transportation for Ellin from Waisamu village to Ambon, as well as transportation for her medical visits to the clinic and hospital. A huge thank you to all who continuously donate through Berkat Ambon, allowing us to help those in need.


Update 3/12/25:

Praise the Lord Jesus, Meydelline has passed through all the processes and is now waiting to be contacted by the hospital for surgery. Since she was 6 months old, Meydelline's cousin played with her, and her eye was hit by a stick. And dirt (eye discharge) kept coming out, initially just a small white dot, but now it has started to enlarge. After an examination, the doctor said that all the eye nerves are fine, so her eye just needs to be cleaned. Praise the Lord, everything is going well. The Lord Jesus who started and will finish perfectly. Blessed be the name of the Lord Jesus.


Berkat Ambon helped with transportation for Meydelline and her mother from Hatusua to Ambon, as well as transport to the hospital while in Ambon. Thank you very much to all who always support with prayers and donations through Berkat Ambon.


Update 3/13/25:


Praise the Lord, thank you for the prayers and support so that Meydelline has successfully completed her surgery. May the Lord Jesus help in Elline's recovery process. Berkat Ambon shares love to assist with the needs of Elline's mother while accompanying her. After the eye doctor who treated Elline visited, it was reported that Elline will be able to go home today.


Thank you so much to all who have been praying for all the patients and the ministry of Berkat Ambon, as well as those who have donated through Berkat Ambon. May the Lord Jesus love and bless us all.




Update 4/8/25:

The volunteers from Berkat Ambon once again visited and brought donations for Meydellin Pesiwarisa, a 3-year-old girl from Waisamu Village in SBB. Since she was 6 months old, a white spot appeared on the black part of her eye, which gradually grew larger and began to impair her vision.


Due to the family's limited financial means, they were unable to take her for a medical check-up. After receiving information from the family, Berkat Ambon stepped in by covering transportation costs from Seram to Ambon, settling all outstanding BPJS (health insurance) payments, accompanying her to an eye clinic, and supporting her surgery performed by an eye specialist. Currently, Meydellin’s eye condition is improving and under the care of a doctor. She still needs to undergo one more surgery.


Update 4/14/25:

Meydellin developed a white spot on the black part of her eye starting at 6 months old, which continued to grow and affected her vision. Some time ago, Meydellin underwent eye surgery performed by a specialist.


Currently, her eye condition is improving and remains under medical supervision. She still requires eye drops as part of her treatment. It has now been exactly one month since she began receiving care in Ambon. The doctor has allowed Meydellin to return home to Waisamu for now. She will return at age 4 for lens measurement unless any issues arise before then. Berkat Ambon has provided transportation support to help Mey return home to Waisamu.


We kindly ask for your prayers for Meydellin’s full recovery so that she may grow up enjoying the joy and brightness of childhood. Dear all, you can also share your love and support with Meydellin by reaching out through Berkat Ambon’s Messenger.

A Prayer for Hope: Lord, I maintain my hope in You and I hold onto the assurance that You are my Rock and my Refuge who bends His ear when the afflicted call out Your Name. As David prayed in Psalm 18:1: “I love you, Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”
