News24xx.com - At first the boy named Zahra (6) who came from the city of Balikpapan suffered from normal pain in the neck.

Bunadin (56) The girl's grandfather faithfully cared for her grandchild.

Fortunately, Zahra is registered in the Social Security (BPJS) membership so that the examination and treatment costs do not burden the grandfather and the girl's parents.
